Burke also has a cuved spine. I've noticed that it gets more pronounced when he's in pain. He has been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease (of a disc in his neck) and pancreatitis.
With plenty of exercise, watching his diet and no going down stairs he's doing great. I wish I could stop him from from jumping up on the bed and couch. I tried ramps and stairs, but he thought they meant he had to scale them, and jump as far as he could over them. Ramps and stairs are for old men, and hes feeling too young to use them. |
