Day 51 - Therapy is Exhausting

After therapy nap time...

Just for comparison

See how much straighter my back is?


Hi...
Well, another day at therapy.  They walked me for 30 minutes at 1.6 miles an hour!  Who do they think I am...wonder dog?  On top of that they raised the stinking bars on the course I have to walk through!  Thank goodness for the massage at the end...all is good again.

We put these pictures in so you could see my progress a bit.  At the beginning I walked with a hump in my back because I put the bulk of my weight on my front legs.  I am now able to put some weight on my back legs so I am walking much straighter.  Imagine how great it will be at the end when both my back legs can support me without pain?  

In the meantime...they have said I cannot play with other dogs or run and jump until I am healed from my next surgery!  They really do think I have some sort of super powers that I can tolerate not playing with other dogs, running, and jumping until September!  Do they know I am only 1 year old???  They keep promising it will be worth it though...so I hope they know what they are talking about.  I feel pretty good now.

Oh well...I can dream of being able to play with everyone!

Keep the love coming, in three weeks I will be having the surgery on my right leg.  I guess I will be starting over.
