On June 5th, Crusoe underwent cholecystectomy to have his gallbladder removed. This video explains everything we learned about gallbladder disease in dachshunds and other dogs.
We spoke with the top veterinary experts in North America in regards to liver, gallbladder, and gastrointestinal disease. Including, Dr. Sharon Center of Cornell University, professor of internal medicine. She made time in her enormously busy schedule to see Crusoe personally. Dr. Center’s colleague Dr. Mick was also invaluable in providing ongoing guidance and insights prior to and through surgery. We also consulted with Dr. Jody Gookin at NC State who has advanced a ton of research around gallbladder disease, and was kind enough to take provide her analysis of Crusoe’s case virtually. We also did continued tests with our local vet clinic and their internal medicine department (notable thank you’s to Dr. Cyrus, Dr. Bruce, and Dr. Gumley).
Why We Chose Surgery:
Gallbladder issues, when they become symptomatic, put pressure on the liver which increases liver enzymes in the blood. The more stressed the liver is, the higher the risk of surgical complications (especially related to anesthesia), and thus a higher mortality rate.
As gallbladders start to fill with sludge and mucus, they get clogged with the stagnant bile and can over-extend to the point of actually rupturing. If they rupture and bile spills into the surrounding area, it causes peritonitis which is extremely dangerous and fatal if surgery is not conducted immediately to clean it up - and even then, there is a very high mortality rate. Granted, a dog would probably not go from being asymptomatic to rupture overnight, but it can all still develop rather suddenly.
A lot of studies have indicated mortality rates for gallbladder removal surgery (cholecystectomy) are MUCH lower while the dog is still asymptomatic.
Dogs, like humans, can live fine without a gallbladder. It has no essential function is maybe the most fortunate part about all this.
So, our options were:
Wait-and-see while trying to medically manage with a bile thinner medication like ursodiol for as long as possible. This may prolong/stall the development of his galbladder issue, but there is virtually no statistical data right now that show this can be reversed medically.
Opt for surgery within next 6 months, which is also what the collective recommendation was from the experts we consulted with.
It’s incredibly hard to decide to do surgery on your dog when they’re asymptomatic and feeling fine, especially when you love them as much as we do. But if it’s a question of now or later, where later could mean riskier or emergency surgery, I think sometimes you have to take the more proactive decision.
Even if we delayed or waited until the first signs of symptoms to do surgery - where it would still be relatively safe - that could be 2 or 3 years from now, and Crusoe who is already almost 11, could be 13 or 14 by that point. As Crusoe also has a mild heart murmur at this point, we also don’t want to chance needing such a large surgery when he’s much older.
So ultimately, we decided the best thing for his long term health was to do surgery now while he’s asymptomatic and younger.
We are so thankful that so far recovery has gone well. We hope for many more bright years with our happy pup.

Ryan, I felt bad for Cru when I found out he had surgery…
I haven seen this channel in a long time, so I began watching it again, and when I saw you uploaded this video 1 year ago, I saw the video immediately and it broke my heart knowing that Crusoe had a big surgery, I really hope the little guy is ok now and forever. You guys are very lucky to have Crusoe as a pet, and I also hope Crusoe has a great, beautiful and long life with his family that loves him forever and ever. God bless Crusoe for every second, days and years of the little guys life, and also Daphnes life too. I love these little guys, and that will never change❤️❤️❤️
It's touching to see how much he is loved. With so much bad going on in the world, Crusoe is a beacon of light. Glad he is on the mend.
love crusoe

Tears! I'm so glad he's on his way to his old self again. I too tell my dog that I love her and that she's the best every day. Thank you for the education as well!
Crusoe is such a little trooper. He did so well during his back surgery several years ago and now this one. I’m so glad he’s doing well. Our pets like you said mean everything to us. I’m so impressed with all the research you did. Crusoe is one lucky little guy. We know how much you love him and his fans do to. I had to giggle when you said he is your boss. Ryan there is not a day that I don’t tell my little Ellie that I love her too and she knows it. Crusoe will be in my prayers.❤️
Glad he doing well your dogs are great and love how you get them to call and clean they make me smile
so sorry Crusoe. glad your doing better
I just read the blog and was very happy to see that Crusoe is on the mend. As someone who had gallbladder issues you were so right to do it now.
Thanks for sharing and letting us know how he's doing. We always look forward to Crusoe and Daphne's next adventure. I know it's a lot of work putting those together. I pray the rest of your year will be doubly blessed.
So glad he is OK. We all love you crusoe. Stay healthy and happy bud.
Awww Crusoe thank god you are doing ok.
Cru is so wise. His eyes are mesmorizing.
Uh, I think he's high on pain-killers.
God bless you all! So glad to know Crusoe is doing well. I love all three pups 💕. They are very special and always make us smile 😊 Thank you for the update!!!
He is so cute and I hope he gets better soon
Glad Crusoe is doing great glad to hear about that special little guy :D
Crusoe always has a spot in my heart. I just love looking at his videos and just am glad that he's doing very well! He's a very lucky dog to have a great family and fans to support him. God bless you Ryan and Lauren for doing so much for Crusoe and he’s lucky to have such a kind family. ❤️❤️❤️
Laughed out loud, then immediately had tears filling my eyes when you said Crusoe is also your boss. What is this pandemic doing to me??? I'm relieved he is fine. Can't believe he is 11 already! I live alone, can't have dogs in my rental, and watching daxi youtube videos, tiktoks and insta's is what got me through so far. Thank you.
I am so glad that Crusoe is still striving! Everyone revolves around him and loves him! May God bless you guys!
Get well soon Crusoe.😥😥😥😫😫😫😫 We will be praying for you cru.🙏🙏🙏🙏
He looks like such a baby in the pic with Dr. Singh!! 😍🥰❤❤
I feel bad, he’s such a good boy
