Woooo – this feels good.
Time for our weekly TPLO recovery update – and the picture above says it all. Yes, that would be Queen Natasha the Evil walking without the dreaded sling. Her x-rays looked very good and she is entering the next phase of rehabilitation. We are starting with a daily short walk (about 10 minutes) which we hope to expand to twice daily walks in a few days. As the muscle begins to rebuild, those walks will gradually get a little longer. In about six weeks, we will x-ray again to see if she can begin some off-leash, but supervised, time in the yard.
So we still have lots of crate rest, but at least that is being separated by real – if short – walks.
Stretching the legs.
Cheoah also continues to do well and is soooooo looking forward to her x-rays in three weeks that will hopefully begin her time without the sling.
I wanna go for walks, too.
All in good time, Cheesewhiz, all in good time.

Wings of Doom

A simple nightly routine with my dogs led me to face the wings of doom, a hideous creature that lurks in the shadows of my yard.
