I guess we will start physical therapy in 2 weeks..... will Kacee be having any outside physical therapy or are you able to do it at home?

I will look up those terms. I might learn something!
Kacee is not requiring physical therapy. She has full use. I've seen her stretch a few times this week and she has impressed me with how well she is doing. I don't start her on five-minute walks until Thursday and we'll do that for two weeks and then on weeks 5 & 6, 10 minute walks, weeks 7 & 8, 15 minute walks. I think my main concern will be keeping my rambunctious puppy under control!
We go back July 18th for the last? checkup and they will do x-rays at that time.
