Interesting reading this.
We haven't had any of our dogs develop Cushings, but it has cropped up in two horses over the years. With the first one years ago, we were treating symptoms and finally her health deteriorated. The biggest clue was her winter coat wasn't shedding, so she had a raggedy look.
With the Icelandic, it was diagnosed about eight years ago and he has been on a low dosage of Pergolide which, if I understand correctly balances his hormonal levels. He is doing great and is now 32 years old.
Good luck with the pup.
