4 week post surgery check up

Basco has improved incredibly!!!!!  Functioning left hind leg at 75% is an improvement from not functioning prior to surgery  THANK YOU LUCKY DOG ANIMAL RESCUE!!!!  Basco continues to do his physical therapy with his foster three times a day and Dr. Snakard has added a new exercise - "dancing" on Basco's two hind legs.  "I'm looking forward to dancing with Basco," says his foster Mom.  Basco is also enjoying the Fall weather with his curious nose in the leaves and watching the squirrels. For Halloween he is the screaming three legged pet it is from help the pets from star wars battles "star wars" says his human foster brother, AJ.

Basco's Physical Therapy

Well, Basco sent me off on a trip to the emergency vet at Dogs and Cats Vet Referral late last night.  Basco is so smart that he figured out how to bend his body and get the edge of his cone to scratch is stitches, popping 2 of his stitches out.  Tricky little guy!  So now I have him wrapped so he can't pop any more stitches.  They come out next Friday.  We've been working hard on his physical therapy and I learned I need to push a little harder on the extending of his leg during physical therapy.
