We met Tochi, a 9 year old Shih Tzu, in December for a sudden hind limb weakness and severe back pain. He was referred to BVNS Rockville by Bennet Creek Animal Hospital. Dr. Lipitz performed a spinal MRI examination and diagnosed an acute disc herniation in his mid back as the cause for his signs. Surgery was performed for treatment following his MRI Examination. 

The procedure went very well and Tochi is back to his happy self now, comfortable and able to walk normally. He was even laying on his back for belly rubs during our examination! His family and we are thrilled by his wonderful recovery.
