We are back!! Everything went well, and the neurologist is very pleased with his progress. Passed the toe test with flying colors. He is no longer paralyzed at all. I was not allowed in for the exam, as the dogs act differently when the owners are there! I guess that is true, so I had to sit and bite my nails for 45 minutes while they did all kinds of tests on him. He is not in any kind of pain and can come off all meds. (He is only on Gabapentin now) He is walking properly as well. She tried to see if he was wobbly but he was pulling on the leash like crazy and trying to run, but she says he is fine! So happy. He is not 100% yet, but almost there. I am to slowly start letting him do what he does, and that is..be a dog! What an experience. Thank you all for your advice and reassurance and everything else. :D

love this news, and so glad you had the DLC to turn to when things looked rough. Having crazy dachshund friends is the best!!
