Is she moving?

Figure of speech...moving as in moving along.

Oh, well hope she is moving along and moving through your house soon.

Just checking in on sweet gabby and her new cart. I hope she settles into it and feels more comfortable rolling around the house and yard.

Awwww, pretty girl! How is she liking it? Is she moving around pretty well?

linz06 · 01-29-2012, 04:13 PM

She looks sooooooooo happy!!!!

ladyjane · 01-29-2012, 04:19 PM

She is really good around the house. She actually has figured out how to get out of traps...when she gets caught on a corner, she backs up. The therapist told me it takes a while for them to get it...not Gabby!

She loved being outside...sniffing the grass and all..but did not walk around much out there.

Seeing these pictures of Gabby out-and-about just melts my heart. Sounds like she is enjoying being mobile.

And of course, Gabby is a "smarter than the average bear" and would figure out those maneuvers quickly. (Giggle - you might have a hard time keeping up with her after she gets proficient.

Gabby is amazing. I remember how heartbreaking it was to see the original video of her trying to walk when she first came on the scene. Now she is an inspiration to all who have old or handicapped pups.
Good job Gabby!!

Boy..you can just see it in her eyes, like she has been given a new lease on life. She looks so happy and carefree in the pictures and quite at home in your house. I am so happy she is doing well I know how much you wanted this for her.

I just love those photos of her out and about in her cart. I wonder if it is more difficult to roll through the grass maybe as she gains more strength in her legs she will roll around in the grass easier. It really is wonderful to see her face light up in these photos.
