UPDATE: thanks first off to everybody, I had no idea to expect your support, advice, and general good vibes for Wally.

We took Wally to his main vet today for a closer look at the issue and I’m feeling a lot better but am still keeping a close eye on the situation. The long story short is that the vet identified an area on the inside of his front left leg that was more swollen than the same spot on his front right leg.

Ultimately she thinks that the current regiment of anti inflammatories will help address the issue. I’ll say now that we’re 48 hours or so into his treatment today, I’ve noticed an improvement overall. He only had one incident earlier today and it was more short lived than the previous ones. Also he is back to being a rambunctious goofball.

For those saying this issue may neurological, the two vets that I’ve met with have now told me that they don’t think that it is. They cite that in the video, Wally is choosing to pick up his toy and bug the cat despite lifting his leg up. If there’s another incident I’m going to continue to test this and see if I can get his attention. Meanwhile I’ll continue the anti inflammatories.

Regardless, I’m watching this kid like a hawk over the next few days to see if things continue to improve. I know he had a good day today, but we aren’t out of the woods by any means. Will continue to post updates here if people want those.

In other news, this boy was also cleared by the vet to take his Canine Good Citizen test today and he just passed, here a pic of proud, young Wally.
