Cushing's disease cause dog pain. Dear Dr. Fox â¢ I have a 10-year-old sheltie who was recently diagnosed with Cushingâs disease. My vet put him on a 60 mg Vetoryl capsule daily for the adrenal glands. He growls at me when I try to put on his halter or touch his front legs, so I know his feet hurt.
However, the condition can be treated--and many of the symptoms it causes eliminated--with various types of medications and therapies. The average age at which a dog is diagnosed with Cushing's Disease is 10 years. There is some evidence to suggest female pets are more prone to the disease than males, however, that is disputed among veterinarians. Spayed/neutered pets may be slightly more at risk.
