How deal with a lame dog that just won't stop running.

[Pesty]

Thank you.

Apparently there is a vid of the procedure which is a nice touch.

I can't watch it though

Pesty, its great to see that hopefully you are heading in the right direction now. Short term will be tough, but hopefully the longer term will benefit.

Pooor boy looks sorry for himself there tho.

Glad to hear you have some progress.Maybe time for some cheap carpet while he recovers?

[Pesty]

Carpet, maybe perhaps a few rugs. We are keeping him from walking around which is no easy task.

It's interesting that he has hardly any bruising, his bark is normal and he isn't limping any worse than normal.

Yet at the other place his whole leg was completely red, he couldn't walk well for weeks and he'd lost his voice.

Glad there seems to be some progress.

Although next few months are going to be hard, aren't they


One of ours is recovering from a simple muscle pull and that's hard enough... no running, limiting the "free play"... can only imagine how hard it is for you and Logan.


Temporary carpet might be better than rugs, if you can swing it... rugs are still quite mobile on laminate floors, aren't they. Added risk, to me.

Big improvement already today, I'm feeling quite hopeful. I've just walked him into the garden to do his bisiness and he's just a bit stiff.

I'm also now extremely worried about what the other lot did.

Wish we'd gone to this place last year it would be over and done with now,

Sounds like you've finally found a decent vet, bet Logan is as glad about it as you are.

Yes this guy knows his stuff by the looks of it. Very confidence inspiring. Treats it as an everyday thing. Looks like he does several similar operations a day. Wasn't pleasant sat in the waiting room with lots of badly injured dogs.

Not a job I could do. I have to admit I'm a jibbering wreck where Logan is concerned this whole thing has knocked me for 6. I'd like to think I'm normally fairy intelligent and logical but not recently, which is silly I know but..anyway.


Right Logan is going stir crazy. He is very fed up actually crying for exercise. I've tried doing a bit if brain work but e can't help himself.

Floor issue sorted. I've ordered some rubber socks. Expends if the stubborn git will let me put them on him.
