"Canine degenerative myelopathy (DM) is an uncommon disease that primarily affects purebred dogs.  DM disrupts the normal communication pathways between the brain and spinal cord, causing loss of coordination and eventual paralysis.  There is no cure or current treatment for DM.  However, there are things that owners can try to help delay progression of the disease and improve their dog\u2019s quality of life.  These are the goals of treating this progressive disease."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
