Day 13, Wednesday: Almost to SINGLE DIGITS! Sits very lopsided, but walks pretty normally. Permanently gave him dining room and kitchen.
Day 12, Thursday: Extended walks a bit just a few minutes at a time. Still several times a day.
Day 11, Friday: Outside for awhile! Allowed to walk around room free, though under direct supervision. He was very very very pleased, sniffing all his toys, all the areas he has been away from.
Day 10, Saturday: At park grass today, tried "kicking" back after peeing - but then SORE afterwards. One of the three walks is now a bit longer.
Day 9, Sunday: Added distance today. Still wants to get too rambunctious if not sedated with 1/4 Ace. Added three-legged stands - but not long!!!
Day 8, Monday: Twice around the block first thing! Added one more walk - now up to four. Nothing longer than 15 minutes. Did leg stands - escaped into house while working outside - guilty dog!
Day 7, Tuesday: Extended all walks to 15 minutes - sore when first gets up from sleeping, but very temporary.
Day 6, Wednesday: Just the usual routine. Leash means a short respite from boredom.
Day 5, Thursday: Bounced around this morning - clearly considers self well. Sedated for safety! Obsessive scratch reflex. Poor doggie.
Day 4, Friday: RECHECK!!!!!! Bone healed; there is small movement but within tolerances and nothing that will affect stability, good range of motion. Increase walks to 60 minutes and then consider off leash. Can add swimming and whole house.
Came home. Took down fences with ceremony as Tiko watched carefully. Then Tiko JOYFUL!!!!! Amen and Amen.
