Me too, literally

How is little Mikki this morning? I am resisting the urge to text you this early

I hope Mikki is feeling better today

Thanks everyone. I was so upset last night. I can't believe how much I love these furbabies. I keep saying Mikki is all daddy's pup. WELL, after the last few weeks I am not sure that is 100% true. I think momma loves her a little more than we knew.

Well Mikki got good rest. Momma didn't ha ha. I was up all night checking on my baby. She is putting weight on the leg this morning so I think that is a good sign. Even tried to play with Rosie but I picked her up and won't let her. I think she better do another day of rest at this point. I am so relieved she is putting weight on it. She is eating and drinking fine. Going potty fine. I think she is going to be ok but I will be watching her. I will continue to update. Thanks again!

Lisa and Michelle, once again you are true friends to me. What would I do if I didn't have you two????? Thank you for helping last night when I needed it!

very glad to hear that, LOL I wonder if us yorkie moms every get any sleep, either we are worrying about our baby or someone else's.

Sorry....just seeing this or I would have posted last night. I am so happy to hear that Mikki seems better this morning.
I have had this happen quite a few times and most of the time they improve. They can tweak their knees easily when they have LP. Of course, you already know, if she is not better, get her to a vet for an evaluation. Often they put them on anti-inflammatories. Torn CCL is always a concern, but since she seems better this morning, it probably is not that.

Poor Mikki...I'm glad to hear she's doing alright this morning.

My female Japanese Chin has luxating patellas. She will be 2 years old soon. We already give her glucosimine/condroiten (SP??) to hopefully ward off any future problems. If you like PM me and I will give you the name of the stuff I use.

Hope Mikki is doing OK this AM. Praying she is well,

Louise

I am going to go ahead and call them in the morning. Even though she is MUCH better today!!! I can't believe the difference! But since my vet knows about the LP I think I will run it by him just to be on the safe side. He may say it is fine since she is better but with the LP I think I need to make sure. He may want to put her on something or even check her out. Sometimes he does to be safe. I was ready to take her to the ER last night but thankfully I waited it out. DH would kill me with two ER visits in one month. He already thinks I panic too much!! Lol

Ha ha.. I didn't see this until this morning.. and I noticed Rhonda's online light was on so I did text her.

I am so glad Mikki is feeling better.. just like with skin kids it is often hard to know when to just take them in or to wait. Now ... when I get hurt I just tuff it out lol

So glad she's doing better... praying that she continues to improve!

I always wait on something like that...unless I suspect a fracture. If it is LP or even a torn CCL what is the EC going to do?
