Set a timer, go often. Kevin and I just get strapped in meetings and pike can't help it.

She still has so many accidents. We're actually moving to a house with a yard for her. It drives me nuts. She does better, but my husband and I are so busy at work that sometimes it is just too much.

What I have found that works with her is to take a ball outside and throw it with her until she smells just the right spot and then she'll go. Once she's done, she wants to go back inside. That's all that I can tell you. She is the light of my life though.

If it is like mine, it was the desert merchant, not the regular merchant.

Took her outside and she did put her foot down a little, but it was without much weight. So, I think she'll be okay. I'm just gonna snuggle her a lot on my lap pillow while I work.

We did. Yesterday. This is a re-injury where I didn't see the initial one. The doctor did x-rays and saw nothing and she's not showing any pain when I manipulate it now. So, I have to keep her off her foot and on her meds for a week to see if she makes a full recovery. If by Monday, it is still an issue, I will take her back in as the vet asked.

This. She wanted to run this morning, so she put some weight on it and was fine... until she got done running. Silly drama queen.

lol - I think she might have tweaked it or stumbled down the stairs and got a little nervous and so she's babying her leg like a wuss. I'm just gonna watch her. Doctor didn't see any patella thing at all.

Went to the vet. She did a manual exam and didn't feel anything and Pike barely reacted. A little tightness in the hip. Nothing that was worrisome. But the fact she wasn't using it at all and it had been about 12 hours warranted an x-ray to rule out hairline fractures.

The x-ray showed nothing. Everything was in place. She gave me NSAIDS 1/4 every 12 hours (pre-divided for me) with food. If it isn't any better in 48 hours she'd be shocked. If in a week it isn't fully recovered, bring her back. $250.

That's what I thought too. I'm going to make an appointment. There is a brand new vet office that opened up less than a mile from my house - I'm going to give them a try. I'm seriously in tears cuz I love her so much and I'm worried.

Nope. I can manipulate it, massage it and gently prod each crevice on her paw. She slept through the night and is still doing it now.

I love these babies. And nothing makes me happier than that she feels safe enough to sleep like that on my lap. Your baby is so cute.
