Thank you.

Maybe we could try stuffing a little blanket around her in the carrier so she's snug!

The rehab vet called before lunch and said it was a nice surprise to see Layla back today! She has gained a lot of weight, which we know, but most likely just from being on crate rest for so long. She has gained almost half a kilo since November!

The vet also suspects she may have another UTI, so if she has a full enough bladder to be expressed by the end of the day they'll get a sample. She thought it smelled a little funny and I thought it has been darker than usual, so at least we'll have it checked!

For the good news, her reflexes are just as strong if not stronger than they were when she was last there in November. She did really well in a lot of her exercises. Her neck movement is really good, except she hesitated a little to turn to the right but the vet was sure that didn't mean anything. She didn't manipulate her at all, just made her turn her head for cookies On the underwater treadmill, she took a little while to get going but did her full 8 minutes. She wasn't as coordinated as she was before, but she still did pretty well for not doing it in 3 months!

This is our last session until we buy another package, but we can't afford it right now. So we'll just focus on losing weight, and doing more exercises at home!
