No change

Loving the couch
I was warned by the acupuncture doctor that Rex may get a little worse the day after. He seems the same today. Still limping badly, but he has good energy and appetite.  He wants to walk, I have to coach him to keep these walks short.  I gave him 200 mg of rimadyl today. He's been on 100 mg a day for two days. Our next acupuncture session is on Monday. We're taking it one day at the time.

Rex on rimadyl

Resting after dinner.
I started Rex on Rimadyl today. He got one chewable (100mg) at 11:00am. The vet said 2 a day. I will wait until tomorrow morning before he gets his 2nd. I'll give this with his morning snack. I will monitor this like a hawk. At the sign of any side effects I with stop.
I will upload a video for each day starting today.

Cold morning

It was below zero again this morning. We have to shorten down our walks when the temps drop this low. Like kids my danes loves to eat the snow.

When it is this cold the snow that gathers in their paws really bother them. They eventually stop and start tripping their looking at me for help.
