A lame Wall-e update

Wall-e is no longer lame; woohoo! As of Saturday, he is no longer putting his weight on his right leg, and yesterday he wasn't limping either. We have a vet appointment on Wednesday, so we'll see if our veterinarian sees anything. I've increased his exercise to a daily 30-minute walk.

I've also started training him regularly again. This morning we worked on lefts and rights. He always gets his lefts, but his rights are still at about 50%. Still, he was really enthusiastic, spinning like a top!

  3. Thank goodness he's doing well. Why is everyone going lame lately?!?! Ricky, Wall-e, Marge. Didn't one of Kathy's dogs have some issues too? Good thing you and the others are on the mend!

  6. I have been reading a lot of "lame" posts about Big Dogs this past week as well. Must be Spring. Hoping Wall-e is doing much better every day.
