I wish you and your dog the best of luck. Have you looked into financing pet surgery? Perhaps you already have pet insurance coverage from an employer or another organization attached to your service dog.
Hey TripleC223,
You are on the right path. Cascade for dry hopping is a good idea. Change one thing at a time so you know the effect of the change. Then you will be on your way.
Enjoy the obsession....I mean hobby :)
