Deer Mister Sprout,

Pleez bee a gud boy and don't dew too much, okay?

Lubs,

Pik-up-a-chew :paw

I wish I'd logged in earlier so that I could have passed this message onto Sprout :rolleyes:

 

He's not been out for a walk or anything but he hates to miss what might be going on so he's been up and about a fair bit and I think that, combined with his pain meds wearing off has made him a bit flat tonight. He didn't join in at dinner time so I made him something a bit different (canned, prescription diet mixed with some of our dinner leftovers, as opposed to his normal dry kibble) and he did eat all of that. If he's still a bit flat tomorrow I'll call the vets...

Sprouty went to see the vet this afternoon for his check up and the vet was pleased with him :D (Sprout was also pleased with the vet who fed him some liver treats).

 

Because we had the surgery done in the early stages of the problems with his cruciate, he's allowed to do more than he would have been if he'd had the surgery once the cruciate had snapped (ewww). So although Sprout does still have to have lead only walks (boo hiss), he's going to also have hydrotherapy (snigger) to see how he likes it ( :unsure ) because no harm can be done and it can only help to get back some strength and muscle tone.

 

Pet Plan will cover the hydrotherapy (yayyy) which costs £25 per 'medical swim' and they normally have a course of 10 sessions (although Sprouty may only have six or eight, depending on whats necessary). I've booked the first available session which is Thursday 28th June. I shall be taking the camera :rolleyes:

Oh, that is great news.

 

I understand that dogs who get to do hydrotherapy recover much much faster from cruciate surgery. :)
