Thank you Terry. The strangest thing is she started limping back in February so we put her on the glucosamine and chondriotin (sp?) and also previcox for a month or so. Then she had "vacation" at my moms for three weeks before Easter and she was fine. She would occassionally limp when she first stood up, but not too bad.
Then the limping became more often so I took her in for Xrays. Now since Tuesday she is hardly applying pressure to that leg at all. She still runs and plays, she just doesn't use that leg. We have begun calling her hop-a-long. She still has her spirit and waggly butt too.
My sister is a vet tech and she said the best picture (xray) of a dogs leg is when they are sedated so the muscles are not tensed up. We didn't get xrays of her while sedated. So before any surgery is even discussed I will request xrays while under sedation and on BOTH legs. My sister told me to get that done. So they can check both knees.
I might leave Zo at my moms when we go on the 10th for Xmas with my friends. Then see how she is at Xmas and go from there. She is not as active while she's there because she doesn't really play with my moms dogs and my mom can monitor her better since she doesn't work.

Oh, I called the vet this morning to ask about the pain meds I picked up Thursday night. She told me to start with the lower dose. Well that's not working. So she said to up the dose and call her back on Monday and we'll go from there on how she is doing. The lady that I talked to asked me if I was keeping her confined or restricting her activity. I laughed and said...as much as possible. Yeah, she's an Aussie......not an easy task. But we are limiting her outside time just long enough to do her business.

Oh, I've begun keeping Zoee's coat very short too. I love it!

Wow, I'm sorry. I could sit here and type a novel on this. Ok, I'll stop now.
