Our Charlie has just been for his 4 week check up with the Vet who performed his operation. He is delighted with his recovery, he is walking mainly on all 4 legs now and doesn't need the painkillers any more. He is still not allowed to run around incase he overdoes it but he can go for 30 minuite walks now. The bad news is that he needs the other leg doing as weel. I am dreading that as it was very upsetting seeing him in pain and unable to walk straight after his operation and hard work keeping him from jumping around once he started to feel better.
