Post ACL Surgery - Alvin's Recovery

Alvin's recovery from ACL surgery (2 months ago) is accelerating. He continues to do well in the water tank at the PT Center.

He's stopped walking 3-legged but still limps after therapy or after a walk. In fact, he passes out after PT (see pic).

For more information about Alvin's surgery, see the previous post (http://designerpuppys.blogspot.com/2015/10/water-therapy-for-dogs-post-acl-surgery.html) and this article (http://vmills.hubpages.com/hub/How-ACL-Surgery-Improved-Alvins-Overall-Health).

Water Therapy for Dogs Post ACL Surgery

Seven weeks ago, Alvin had surgery for an ACL tear.  He developed a bad habit after surgery - refusing to walk normally. He would walk three-legged or limp badly even though we tried to exercise his surgically repaired knee.

Now he's in the PT program at a local veterinary hospital. Today, his third PT session, he's in the water tank high stepping and restoring muscle strength to his leg.

The Boyz Lost The Goughnuts Chew Toys!

A few weeks ago, Alvin the Terrible looked a little depressed. When I asked him to find his goughnuts toy (he's had one since he was a pup and now he's 5) he could not locate it anywhere in the house.

Our back deck overlooks a cliff. We think brother Simon dumped the goughnuts off the deck and over the cliff - never to be found again. Things disappear down the cliff quite often!

So, I signed onto Amazon and ordered two goughnuts - the small ones.

Hiding Under The Table

Now, Alvin is happy but not allowing Simon or us to touch his GoughNut Green .75!

NO ONE touches my Goughnuts
