We will endeavour to get back to you as soon as we can (within 24 to 48 hours). Please remember we are a volunteer run charity and we sometimes are unable to respond immediately.
If you feel your dog needs immediate assistance, please call your regular vet or head straight to your nearest 24/7 PetER as a matter of urgency.
PLEASE NOTE
Before emailing us, please take a moment to read the following:
DISA is a volunteer-run charity dedicated to educating and supporting dachshund owners on back health, how to respond in an emergency, and how to approach rehabilitation and conservative treatment.
We are unable to provide advice or assistance regarding rehoming or boarding an IVDD dog, and we cannot offer financial assistance for veterinary or medical treatment.
One of our core goals is to maintain a well-researched website to help owners make informed decisions when managing their dog after an IVDD episode. Before contacting us, please search our website or visit our Facebook page, where you’ll find extensive resources.
Please remember that DISA, its volunteers, and its representatives are not veterinarians or healthcare professionals. For all medical or healthcare concerns, please consult your veterinary care provider.
