There are a number of email lists for specific medical conditions that I have heard of. Although several of these lists come highly recommended, others I know nothing about, but they may be a good place to start learning more about any condition your dog has been diagnosed with. Remember, though, that not everything you hear will be reliable.Some of these lists are inactive, but may still have useful information in their Files and Archives.
