Veterinary neurologist Amy Thibault discusses Wobbler's Syndrome. It is a colloquial term used to describe cervical spondylomyelopathy, a multifactorial disease process that affects the spinal column of the neck, causing compression of the spinal cord.
“It is one of the most common conditions to affect the cervical spine in large and giant breed dogs,” adds Dr. Amy Thibault, veterinary neurologist at Southeast Veterinary Neurology.
