QuestionOur puppy bulldog at the age 4 months old fell down our vet's stairs and severely sprained his right shoulder. It has now been 8 weeks and he still has a limp. He also has atrophy in his right paw. The vet says he needs rehabilitation but she is not offering to pay. I do not have the money for rehab and I was told to get him in a pool so he could swim and get his range of motion back. I do not believe he is in any pain. I think the limping is from a "learned" habit because it happened 8 weeks ago. I also have him on vitamins to support his bones and tissue while he heals. His body is off balance and I would like to know if you have any more suggestions. Thank you.
AnswerHi - Oh, poor kid! Yes, I have some ideas for you...
Put a swim vest on him and get him into a pool or lake, if possible.
It will help a bunch.
Yes, he could have picked up a bad habit with the limping .... hard to say.
Here are some suggestions for him to strengthen up and build some bulk again.
I refer all my clients to the following brands only.... there are many supplements on the market, but I know these work wonders.
Also, they have a MONEY back guarantee, too.
