Smudge liec, he did mope on Friday that is until I brought Winter home from the vet and then he wouldn't leave her alone that is until she growled at him. The princess was still a little doped up at that moment in time.
Anyway Winter's hips are fine and dandy which is good however her left knee isn't so fine and dandy the acl has moved away from the knee a bit and the vet could either move the bones together or not move the bones together I can't remember what one either way the vet said that it should heal on it's own in a couple of months which means no agility or flyball or hard activites for the Winter girl which is kind of a bummer but I'd rather have a healthy dog then one that can't walk.
The vet also said that if she was a 20 pounds heavier then she is (she weighs 28.8lbs right now) he'd be worried but that I keep her at such a good weight for her that all she is is muscle sinew and bone.
It's good knowing what's wrong with her because know that I think about it she's been sort of favoring her left leg pretty much ever since I got her, you know standing so that her left leg has the least amount of weight on it, limping at times (we always just thought that that was because she hit it or something because it wouldn't last long.) and sometimes when she lies on her right side she won't put her left leg down she just sticks it out in the air.
That's about it though otherwise she's a healthy happy puppy who got a new collar for being such a good girl the other day.
Yes I spoil them

And what a good girl she was! I'll bet she's wearing her new collar proudly!
Hugs to you sweet Winter girl from Sandra, Cody and Star!
