Well, I noticed that on Leather's walk today, she did great! She didn't limp once! :D Her leg still has a nasty scab that probably won't go away though :(

I took her to the playground and she climbed on it with me and walked across the rickity bridge, the tire thingy and the tire bridge! :eek: I wasn't only surprised about her being able to do that with her leg, but her doing that at all! :D Timber is the one who does that, but even she sometimes falters and sometimes gives up! :eek: Leather looked at me with doubt, but kept going!

I was so proud of her :)

I think I missed what was wrong with Leather, but I'm very glad to hear that she is doing so well now!!
Good girl Leather!!!

Oops, sorry, I forgot to tell everyone lol...I had something about her going to the vet for it a while ago

Well, Leather has a chronic boredom disorder where she bites herself when she is bored :(
While she was living at my dad's, he started to abuse her (she lives at his ex wife's now, I still call her my stepmom..I took Leather away from his house and he didn't even care, so pucha to him :mad: ) and while he was neglecting her he failed to realize that Leather's leg was getting alot worse and when people pointed it out, he wouldn't take her to the vet...
So I saved her, gave her to Kristine (my stepmom) who took care of her leg, and when she got paid she went to the vet and the vet said she was doing much better :)
But she hadn't stopped limping on walks until yesterday, so I'm very proud of her! :D
Thanks for all your kind words :)
