Just played a few rounds of “find it”. He loved it, he got too excited so I had to stop. Great way to develop that skill too. I rubbed the treat...
Thank you.
Duggan is doing well. I think the shock and pain of it all is waning and his spirit is shining through the semi drug induced comma the anti...
My boy went to the vet with a nice coat and came Home 2 days later with bad dandruff.
I’d post a pic of the poor guy but I don’t want to embarrass him. Lol.
That seems to be the pattern. Putting the cone on was just coincidental I think.
I figured the meds had something to do with it. I’ve made the house a bit colder. It’s all quite terrible to have to go through. He’s settled down...
Yes. He’s licking the incision. I understand panting is indicative of stress. I’m just hoping he’s adjusting to the collar and not it too much pain.

Tonight I just put it down next to him and said okay right away and didn’t even look at him and all was well. I haven’t been stressing or...

So he has a complete tear, not just partial and the Dr. suspects more damage. Now I get to research surgery options.
I think I read a big story by a vet last night using a “Charlie” as a case study. I couldnt help wonder if it was the same Charlie.
I was under the impression Cruciate Disease was gradual onset not instantaneous. Perhaps his high speed power turns had been accumulating without...
It has no idea such a strong healthy animal could hurt themselves so badly from just running.
Thanks for the concern @Beanwood. I never would have thought this was something that could happen or something I should even be concearned about...
Well, just dropped poor Duggan off at the Vet. He ate his supper and his breakfast after a long night of whimpering. He is completely lame and non...
