Wow, it has been a whole month since I wrote to you diary. Today is a beautiful day, we are all out on the patio while mom types this for me. There is a nice cool gentle breeze keeping us cool. Yeah for fall.
I just got home from seeing Doc Nancy and I feel great. I haven't seen her in 3 weeks. This is significant because it means I am getting better. I no longer have to see her every week. The sores on my feet are healing up, this means I am not dragging my paws as much. I am eating normal portions of food now, but I am getting huge. I weigh 104 lbs. My usual weight is 96-98 lbs. Mom has started calling me Marsmallow, because she says I look like one and of course I am just a sweet. Doc Nancy told mom to add more veggies to my diet. Low calorie things because the extra weight will be hard on my neck. I can't get much exercise. Mom has been putting Paw Tectors (Booties)on my front feet so I can go for a short walk. We have to be careful to not go to far. I can just see mom carrying me home. BOL.
There is a family joke about Grandpa'a wagon. He offered his yard wagon so mom could take me for a long walk with Tuesday and Duke. Just imagine Mom walking with Duke and Tuesday and pulling a great big white german shepherd marshmallow in a wagon. Do you think people would stare? Wouldn't that be something? We would be having the greatest time and they would have something great to discuss at the dinner table. A beautiful day for everyone.

Life is to be lived and lived to the fullest extent. Wobblers is bad but it sounds like you are doing very well. Accupuncture worked for a good friend and it helped Daddys last Dobe with his spinal arthritis. Hope you keep getting better and al least are able to enjoy longer walks.
