Trio's Progress

Can't quite believe that it's been three months since Trio had her accident!

She is continuing to make good progress and both our vets have been thrilled with how well she has done. 

She has quite a following now at The Oak Vets! and all who have been involved with her always comment on her lovely personality, she is always such a sweetheart there with everyone.  If she's not really happy she just looks away until whatever is being done is over with.

This is the longest that we've gone between appointment, back next week for a check but would be straight back if we were concerned with anything.

We have been slowly increasing her walks, and have introduced some hill climbs too.  She really looks forward to her outings as this is normally one to one time with either me or Tasha, sometimes we might take one of the other dogs for a change but it's nice to just have some special time with her.

Massage is still ongoing, as is some passive movement exercise and we have introduced Trio's favourite activity - swimming!



Initially this was just walking through the water but now moved on to some swimming.  Sadly we don't have a hydrotherapy pool near to us, so being inventive we have found that we can use the slipway at Goodwick, just being careful to ensure that she's dried thoroughly after each swim and warmed up.

  5. Aww bless her, so pleased to see Trio is recovering slowly! When Toby damaged his cruciate it seemed like an age before he was allowed out (I suppose it was) and he was just so happy to get out and about. It takes time but like you say the one to one time is rather nice.
