The group is administered by Volunteers and join requests are processed in a timely manner depending on availability.

The primary focus of this group is to extend support and guidance to dog owners who are facing challenges related to IVDD. Since managing IVDD can be both emotionally and financially taxing, this group is a space where you can chat with owners who have undergone similar experiences and also with those who are well-versed in this field.

Our ultimate aim is to foster a compassionate atmosphere that delivers sound advice and realistic perspectives on the most effective strategies.

We also highly recommend that you refer to our well-researched and peer-reviewed website www.ivdd.org.au.

As always, we’ve got your back.
