Post-rehab session in the sun
Thank you for the tips on how to get Romeo to eat his kibble. To our surprise, he started eating it up again without any further problems so that's great.
On Thursday, Romeo had a case of lazy legs compared to the day before and we figured out why: He had finished his pain medication. He's back to moving his legs a bit more now, but he groans a lot. We need to chug past this stage because we don't want him hooked on pain medication, obviously. He took a break from rehab sessions yesterday so we'll do some light ones today.
Romeo's still trying to walk, but his right leg isn't progressing as quickly as his left. He'll walk/hop a bit and then his right leg will either give out or trip his left one. Hopefully it starts strengthening up. He wagged his tail a lot, the most we've seen yet, yesterday evening and today so that's awesome. He and Mia try to play together, but we have to remind them (or, more specifically, remind Mia) to be gentle. Oh, and Romeo's getting far too brave for his own good. He tries to jump on/off things and, in fact, has been successful in jumping off the bed twice now while one of us has been asleep. He definitely can't be doing things like that so we'll have to watch him like a hawk.
He had a couple of accidents in the house yesterday which is surprising because he'd been doing so well. We'll have to keep watching him carefully and trying to get him into a better routine.
Romeo has his first acupuncture appointment since coming home on Tuesday so we're optimist that will go well.
