If it's possible, I'd definitely try to take her to that swimming facility I sent you a link to. I know it's not, like, right around the corner for you but it's probably not too far? 45 minutes maybe from Waldorf to Annapolis? Even if you could do once or twice a month... I think it would really help take the weight off fairly quickly and also be no pressure at all on her knees and joints.

Just like for humans, swimming is the best form of exercise for your pet. They work every muscle group, work their joints with no impact and do so with the benefit of 80o water. Also, 5 minutes of swimming is purported to be the cardio equivalent of a 5 mile walk
