I explained our present exercise regimen which he said was good and it's now just a matter of time to build him back up. The muscle mass is starting to come back on the affected thigh so all looking good. Overall he said Max looked well - coat and weight good etc. He also mentioned that he's a bit boisterous (can't think why ).
The vet has given us 120 Seraquin (Glucosamine and Chondroitin) tablets to take at the rate of 3 a day - Max not me!!!! We have to return to our own vet in 6 weeks for a final check.
As you can imagine I'm mighty relieved and happy that we can progress (slowly) to the next level.
I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the advice and support I have received during this worrying time.
Cheers,
John
