I got some medicine after my checkup in March because I was starting to limp. It is warmer now, but my limp got worse, so Kathy took me back and I am on two different kinds of medicine now. They took X-rays, have two bad thoracic vertebra and one in the lumbar region, but there are bone spurs in my right elbow, which is probably what is making me limp.

So, I am taking a prednisone burst for three weeks and drinking and peeing a lot. Sure get hungry too! I feel a little bit better. Kathy was worried, wants me to rest so we only go out around the block instead of all the way to the river trail. The day I went to the vet, I felt so bad that I didn't want to get out of the car at Kathy's mom and dad's place and they are two of my favorite people.

I am still limping, but not as bad. I get around pretty good at first on our short walks.
