    just had a phone call from pet medics, :) scan results are back, .....no damage to his shoulders or left elbow, right elbow as still got the bit of bone attached that is causing the limp, luckily the bit of bone is still attached as this some times floats about,.......he is revering him to the surgeon who may ring later today to arrange a date for surgery,......this will be done by key hole surgery , and he should make good recovery,.....no arthritis as shown up , good news again......not saying he wont get arthritis in years to come, so much happier today :) thank you all for your concern, jasper sends you all big licks

    Brill news! Great stuff. Particularly the bit about key hole surgery. That sounds like the recovery time will be much shorter than otherwise. Back to long walks before you know it! :) :)

    thank you,...jac,....just been on to the hydrotherapy, 25 pound per session,....he asked me to get my policy out why he was on the phone, i read it out to him, he said i am insured for 10 sessions, so a bit lighter on my pocket,....he said to ask the surgeon when is the best time to start them before op or wait until he as had it done, :) so a little bit more good news
