    Poor pup being very good though to let you hold frozen peas on it. Lochan was probably offering to hold them for you just happens he'd have to use his mouth. ;D

    Pesky squirrel. :mad:

    She must have really cracked it on something! Have you done x-rays yet?

    :-[ :-[ :-[
    No xrays yet. She is slowly improving, the swelling is reducing with the ice and today she managed down the field for an on-lead amble about. Unfortunately it is outrageously busy at work (OH has repaired 3 cruciate tears since Monday, one was an 80kg very aggressive mastiff that had torn both cruciates and couldn't walk at all - the time and effort required to safely look after such a dog is incredible). In any case, her injury is not one likely to require surgery so it is probably not necessary at the moment to put her through sedation and radiation exposure - at least that's my excuse and I'm sticking with it!

    And Lochan is still determined to help with the frozen peas ice pack....

    Glad Tarka's leg is improving and she fancied a walk. :)

    I bet Lochan is wondering if theirs anything more interesting than peas that might be of more help. ;)

    Charlie says to tell Lochan to tell you that frozen bags of prawns are the very best thing for sore legs.
