i didn't take him today and it looks like i should have, we will walk a bit and see if he will loosen up.
it looks like he needs to go back, something in his hip or low back is bugging him, but I am not sure if I should wait to see if it will work itself out. his muslces are tense and a bit knotted not sure if I should take him this week or not.
thinking i will wait another week, just to see.
well we went to the chiro today and it was a painful visit.
he growled at her as she adjusted his low back and his right shoulder corresponding to the foot that hurts, she agreed that the problem is probably nerve. he is walking better but sore. we went on a short walk before getting into the car and going home. hopefully we will make it 4 weeks before going back.
we have been alternating with the e-collar and a bandae over the past few days, he seems to be walking better but is still wanting to chew on it whenever he can get to it. the sore is getting better, and he is putting weight on it. someone on one of my lists suggested that it might be from nerve pain so i am giving him arnica and hypericum to help deal with that. we also have an appointment with the chiropractor, but not until next week.
i have upped his vitamin c's
oh and he is wanting to go on his walks again, but i am not ready for him to be doing that.
bohdan has been chewing on his foot. i thought it was just a little itchiness, but
it has turned out to be an obsession. he has a huge hole in his foot, and he wont put weight on it. there is nothing stuck in it. i have decided to bandage his foot to keep it clean and him from chewing on it more.
not sure what the vet will tell me, so we aren't going. i have done all that they will do. still i am worried.
