March 10. We were at the vets again on Monday and Tuesday of this week. Jif was having a lot of difficulty getting herself up with the use of her remaining hind leg. We were given some pain killers. Was told it was like doggie Celebrex. While her attitude has improved, her leg hasn’t. She can raise the leg about half way up and take a step or two before she falls back into a sitting position. Vet felt around and said he did not believe that her remaining hind leg was affected by cancer or anything else. At this point, I guess we’re thinking of a cart for her. Have any of you tried the carts and do you find one brand better than another? Meantime, her trips outside are made using the sling.
It is part two (around 2:53) of our three-part video interview where CARE co-founder Dr. Waldman answers our question, “How do you know when a Tripawd is ready for a cart?”
