Hello! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all. Rufus finished crate rest at Christmas. He will return for another laser and acupuncture session on 1/6. We're happy with his progress. Still a little shuffling in his walk, but continues to improve. When we're not in the living room, or not at home, he is in the kitchen with baby gate up. Nothing in there that he can jump on, climb, etc. There are 3 new no slip rugs on the linoleum, and he seems to know that they're for him to get on when he's not on his pillow in the crate, or blanket in front of the crate. = ) Since crate rest ended he's been sleeping in front of the open crate door on a crate pad and blankets. Guess 8 weeks closed in was enough for him. Thanks so much for all the prayers and kind words. Oh, and he has his ramp for going outside, so no steps.

Thanks for the update, and Congratulations on completing crate rest again You are a real inspiration for me, as Stevie is being treated Conservatively for the 3rd time this year - we adopted her one year ago,and have been fighting IVDD for half of it. It is hard some days to not give in to despair. Thanks for being a light at the end of the tunnel

Thank you so much. Wishing Stevie a quick recovery. It is hard to keep them crated, but knowing they need it helps make it a little easier. Thankful for all the info here on this site.
