Treatment Summary:In the short-term prednisolone group, dogs were treated with 50 mg prednisolone (Streuli Pharma AG, Switzerland) orally twice daily for 3 consecutive days. For the long-term tetracosactide treatment, ALZET osmotic pumps (Durect Corporation, USA) subcutaneously delivering tetracosactide (synthetic ACTH; Bachem AG, Switzerland) were implanted into the dorsolateral neck. New pumps were implanted every 4 weeks. Total infusion time was 25 weeks, with a starting dose of 1.3–1.95 µg/kg/d tetracosactide, which was gradually increased to a final dose of 6–10 µg/kg/d.
