Limping

Troy is limping on and off again, particularly when I take him for proper walks (45 minutes a day compared to the 15 or 20 minutes once or twice a week that Cornel does these days...). So I have put him back on Previcox which is helping nicely.

I don't really want to deprive him of his good walks as he loves going out and being outside! He gets so depressed and bored when I don't walk him (which I didn't over a period of two weeks when I was ill recently and Cornel only walked him about 4 times during that whole time with really short walks)... So I think it is choosing the lesser of two evils... which is unfortunately the pain killers. (Luckily the insurance picks up the very high cost... about £80/month).

Troy and I had some fabulous walks on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and 27th December when we went over to the field in Anerley where Troy could run free and rumage around the grass and bushes to his heart's content. He loves it there, he loves his walks!
