    Aww, as my brother would say, "Ryder may not know he's broken, but he's gonna get fixed!"

    It will be good to get an x-ray of those hips, just to be sure what is or is not going on! Hopefully it is just normal growing puppy clumsiness, but it is best to know for sure in case it is not!

    Ryder is home! Vet said his procedure lasted 7 minutes. He did very good with everything. Everything is great. They couldn't be more than happier with him - he was the "perfect patient." Also, we found out that the vet discovered that through the X-rays, Ryder has a sprain - no idea how he got that but he must have had a high tolerance for pain - so, the best news is that his hips are fine, nothing that the vet found unusual! Everything is symmetrical - bones look just fine. Thank goodness! We're glad we did the x-rays so now we know what is the problem. We have to keep him calm and none of running/playing for 2 weeks up to a month... no running around, no jumping, no roughhousing, no zooming around in the house/yard... Yikes! Any advice? I know we will be crating him a lot for the next 2 weeks or so to allow him to heal and relax. We have no idea how he got a sprain but the vet said it happens often in big breeds? Oh, and I asked him if he thought if Ryder was done growing, and pretty much he is... at 60lbs. He's pretty small for a Lab, now I'm convinced he was the runt out of the litter! I'm OKAY with that because he's just the right size for us!
    You're the one sure thing I've found so you better stick around...
