Subject: RE: Ganglion on wrist... advice?
Get a Bassett Hound.

About 25 years back when we first met, Karen had a Bassett. Karen is a histotech which involves a lot of reptitive movements and makes for problems with both ganglion cysts and carpal tunnel. She had a nasty ganglion cyst come up on her wrist and while we were considering whether to go to the Doc or slam a book on it, she hooked up Rosie Bassett to go for a walk.

Bassetts are incredibly strong.

Coming down the last two steps Rosie lunged forward and jerked Karen right to the ground. A bit skinned up but the plus side was the ganglion was almost immediately gone, never to return.

So go get a Bassett. Other dogs might work but I hate to see you chance it!
