Hi hi hi! Ojo here!
Long Line is back.
Friends, the Leg formerly known as Bad Leg is also known as Left Leg. Left Leg has been doing well! However, Right Leg has been hurting. A few nights ago I was limping, and I slipped a few times, so my person took me to Vet. (I don't like going to Vet.)
First Vet tried to straighten Left Leg, which used to be Bad Leg, but now it's Good Leg because it went all the way straight! Vet said she was very impressed with how well Left Leg is doing! It is very strong and stable, and has good muscle mass!
Then Vet tried to straighten Right Leg. But this hurt and I wouldn't let her.
Vet thinks I may have done a small tear in the CCL on Right Leg. So now Right Leg is Bad Leg.
In order to make that one Good Leg too, I am only allowed on Pee-and-Poop-Walks for the next ten days. And I have to stay on leash.
Most of my Pee-and-Poop-Walks are around our house and are on Short Leash, but once per day my person drives me somewhere different and I get to do my Pee-and-Poop-Walk in the forest with Long Line.
I don't want to have to do Surgery again friends, so even though I know I can go longer and faster, I have agreed to do Pee-and-Poop-Walks-only for the next little while. I hope this fixes Right Leg!

Fingers and paws are crossed that the next 10 days of leash walks will fix you back right up, Ojo. We don't want you to have to have surgery either!
We're sorry to hear your leg is feeling bad now, Ojo. We have our paws crossed that your short walks on lead help it feel better.
We hear , no more overdoing Ojo. I don't want to see you having to use a cane. hee heee. that was a joke , can you see that image in your mind. Please, take care .
My poor buddy. I hope you feel better soon and do not need an operation
Hi Ojo, this is tough. We sure hope right leg will be straight leg again. What a shame to be reintroduced to Long Line.
Besting all our best wishes,
Gail and Nobby.
)jo, we are so sorry. But this is not unexpected. Our vet told Mom there is a 75 % chance of tearing the other CCL within a year. Lightning's happened in about six months and Misty's in just a couple of weeks. We hope you don't need surgery, but if you do, you did so well the first time. Al will be well.

so sorry My love, feel better soon, Beau has done fine with his short walks on leash and at park for 3 years now, he can't go off leash except in our back yard. he is fine with that. hope yours heals but if not you will be ok
We are sorry that the other leg was feeling neglected and acted up to get your attention. Bad right leg! We hope a little resting of that leg will help things feel a bit better! Paws crossed!
Rosie and Redford
