Lottie went to the vets today, and has been signed off regarding her cruciate ligament. She does not need surgery, which we are thrilled about.
She absolutely loved her hydrotherapy sessions at Aqua Dogs Cardiff which has helped her so much during her recovery.
They could not get over how well behaved she was. We have been given exercises from Aqua Dogs Cardiff which we are doing and we are seeing great results, especially with her back which was so arthritic.
Lottie hasn’t lost much weight (only a few grams) as she has been resting, but now we are able to build up her exercise again and the weight will soon drop off again. She hasn’t gained any which is fantastic.
Today’s weight is 23.4kg
She is looking so much better, and her body shape is changing so much, we know she is a lot slimmer than before as she can now fit into a harness we have at home and we have been using as a guide.
She is far happier and full of life, and will be so pleased that she can join us again on our family walks.
