:bigarmhug: :bigarmhug: :bigarmhug:

Sorry to hear that Jacob's right hip is now causing him so much discomfort. :(

Really hope that the reduction in exercise helps him to feel more comfortable while he's rebuilding muscle in the left hip.

Its so hard isn't it? Hang on in there, this will all be worth it in the end.

Just wanted to let you know that we're thinking of you and Jacob :bigarmhug:

Jacob has been to the vets for a check up today due to how uncomfortable he is and the vet has agreed that his rehab needs to be a bit more relaxed for him.....and he also booked Jacob in for his right hip op....on the 27th September  :o

Some pictures of Jacob now he has been shaved down so that his sides look the same

Gosh! But then, if his right hip is really causing him pain, I guess the sooner he has the op the better.

Please give him a very gentle squish from us, I do think of him very often and am sending bucket loads of positive thoughts :bigarmhug:

Good luck with his rehabilitation.

Jacob would make the perfect poster dog for the reasons why people should buy from reputable breeders who health test  >:(

After a bad 2 weeks where he has been limping on and off, emergency trip to the vets, 3 days enforced crate rest, etc, etc, etc it looks like he might have slipping patella in the rear left leg  >:D

I'm sorry there isn't anything I can say to make this all better for Jacob & youself  :'(
but am keeping everything crossed that the news isn't so bad in ref to his left leg ......he's been through so much already the poor boy & the crate rest must be nearly unbearable, at times for you both  :'(
Thinking of you both & sending so many positive vibes for Jacob  :bigarmhug:  :luv: :bigarmhug:
