Caity,

I recently had a boy with an enlarged spleen and we tried the Clavamox (because I
read your posts here) and it didn't work for us.

We did 3 weeks of tetracycline (and pred) and it shrunk the length of the spleen by
45%. He went for at least 3-4 weeks afterwards with no re-enlargement. He passed
away about two weeks ago peacefully in his sleep. We didn't do a necropsy so I don't
really know if it was the spleen or another issue.
