On Saturday, Logan had a very hard time going up steps. She'd place her front feet on a step and refuse to go up. I leashed her and helped her up. A few times she bunny hopped up the steps. Going down wasn't a problem. During last night, I thought I was dreaming, but I heard her do a soft bark then her usual talking. I yelled I was coming and she was at the bottom of the stairs (only 6 up btw). I took her out then had had to help her up.
She saw the vet tonight. Dr. Jill did an awesome, thorough job and examined every joint, neck, spine. Since we know Mz L's hips are bad, she suggested laser treatment, which has worked wonders. In fact, Dr Jill had a stiff neck the other day, used it and was fine!
So, for 10 minutes, the infra-red laser worked it's magic on Logan's hips and back. Next week, she'll have it done 3x, then 2x the following week, and once after that.
I can already see a difference. Logan seems happier and more active. I still give her Rimydal (her blood work is perfect), Dasaquin, fish oil and vitamins.
Yay! I made a payment plan with them. I guess since I've been going there since 1991 they gave in, but they've always been super nice to me. i guess seeing me burst into tears freaks them out. (not often but it's happened)
If you remember, please keep Mz spoiled princess Logan in your thoughts that this new incredible procedure makes her feel better!
