New Wheels

I found Audrey a set of wheels this weekend (I love Craigslist!), and we tried them out yesterday. She handled it pretty well as you can see from the video. We started her on Adequan injections, which are helping a little, but the vet is very concerned about the condition of her back leg, even thinking that the ligament may already be torn. The wheels will help, but we haven't figured out how she can go to the bathroom wearing the contraption.

Better news (than we had hoped)

The trip to the vet on Tuesday left us more hopeful than before. Her ligament is not torn, and the leg is just sore from arthritis. Aud got an anti-inflammatory and will get weekly injections to control the inflammation and pain. We are hoping she will be back to her old self soon - a fraction of her old self -- she weighed 66 pounds!!!!
