Holding steady.... Puppy picture

Well yesterday Ari got his Percortin shot for his Addisons.  Three months ago when I made the appointment, he was so bad that I wasn't sure what shot he would get and now 3 months later he's still here!  Six weeks ago when I took him in his rear legs looks like all bone and no muscle and this time there was muscle. 

Yes, he is limping a bit more than a month ago but, looking at the big picture, he's doing GREAT!!

Don't you just love this photo of Ari as a puppy!!  He was always a lovable goof!

The Rugs are Back Out...

....  the rugs that keep Ari from slipping on the floor when he walks through the house.  When Teddy was having problems walking last year, I had a series of non-slip rugs for him to walk on.  Then this year I got them out for Ari when he was having problems.  Last month I took them up.... he didn't need them.

Now they're coming back.  Right along with rear end wobbling and small seizures.

Not a happy day....  :-(

Why is he holding up his leg?

......who knows for sure..  I am so tuned in to him and how he moves that I think I notice the slightest difference .... you know it could be he stubbed his toe.  Probably not....   My best guess....  he has lost a bit of feeling and is over compensating for not feeling it.  This video was a few days ago.  Since then, he has wobbled more than he has been.  Time will tell.  He slept with me last night.  The WHOLE night.  Pretty unusual actually.  Time will tell.

You’d never know….

…..there were times he could barely walk…   Ari went to training Sunday and got to take a few bites..  What a happy dog!
