I am Douglas Silber and I was the owner of Cletus, a bloodhound who is reported to be the 1st dog with open lipped schizencephaly (OLS). Even though he has the only reported case of OLS in a dog, he can't be the only one with the condition. This blog began with the purpose of following his life and to help educate about OLS in an animal. Cletus may no longer be by my side but I will continue to push for schizencephaly education and awareness... in the name and memory of Cletus the Bloodhound.

1/18/2012 - The tests begin
1/18/12 - 9:52AM - UF Neurology called. They said Cletus' condition does not look like idiopathic epilepsy. An X-ray and Ultrasound is scheduled for 2:00PM today. An MRI and spinal tap will be scheduled for 1/19/12. The cause could be brain tumors, cancer, encephalitits, or a thyroid issue. Cost should be around $2,500.00. Breathe... Oh boy... I miss Cletus...
