Gotta have those veggies!

But seriously~I am by no stretch of the imagination a DR of anything. I have some personal experience with LP because all three of mine have some degree and took a guess with the way he was carrying his leg. I'd never give medical advice and like I said when we spoke your vet is always first choice of care. I'm glad that you took Toby in to see your vet and that she able to properly Dx him.

I really like 107Barney's suggestion for crate training with Toby. You never know when he might need to be confined in the future. Stairs are also a must.

We do not use supplements and although I have discussed this with my vet his recommendation was they were not needed for my three. Dbug did take Rymidal once when he took a strange tumble off the back stairs but has never had any other issues. He's a Grade 2.

They all run~like the wind and play like maniacs. They do use stairs by the bed but they are also over 11 lbs each and the couch is not as high for them as a 5 lber.

Hopefully, Toby is on his way to a full and quick recovery. You are a good momma.
