Kain:

As you can see he is very handsome.  He looks perfect until you see his back..  He has severe MBD sclerosis of the lower spine.  If that wasn't bad enough he was injured in his spine after escaping.  A neurological problem affects his lower extremities partially paralyzing his rear legs and his ability to pee and poop.  When Triangle received him he had to be "squeeze" pooped once a week.  Kain had a full check-up with X-rays, and all revealed nothing could be done.  We opted for passive procedures, physical therapy, probiotic therapy, B-complex injections, liquid D-3 and Mercury Vapor lamps, low protein and high hydration diet.  After months and sporadic results we have settled into a routine.  The Kainer is able poop on his own now for the most part.  This guy is old enough to have seminal plugs and yet is VERY small.  A very good looking guy that needs a special home and a special diet.  Kain is 14 inches SVL, and 44 inches STL.
