Taking Joe to vet today

Kelly on Health - Mon, March 31 2008

I am taking Joe to the vet in a little while to have his legs checked out. On saturday at training, he was limping, we couldn't really tell on which leg, either. He's not doing it anymore, BUT, I'm going to take him to have Dr. Hicks check him out. I may schedule an appt for his hips to be x-rayed. I hope he's ok. Keep him in your thoughts, lets hope he only sprained something. Like I said, he's acting normal again, so who knows? LOL.

Oh, I finally decided to put a pic of ME as me, haha! I was trying to take a pic of joe and I together, but he kept bouncing around and trying to lick me, LOL. So there's my dorky pic! ;o)

I'll certainly keep Joe in my thoughts. I love that big goof, and hope everything turns out fine!

I hope it's nothing. He was probably trying to score some sympathy points for some reason.

Well, he's fine! She checked out his back legs,hips, spine front legs, knees, shoulders, everything. She said he's real solid, has a nice straight and square sit posture, doesn't think there is anything to worry about! She has two ideas that may have happened. One, he stepped on a sharp rock, thorn, glass, something like that. The other, she said although his patella's don't feel in any way like they move, he may have kind of popped his knee, like it kinda locked a little, it popped when he straightened it out, and so it could have been sore for training. He didn't mind anything she did to him, so I am relieved!!! He had fun and had to meet everyone at the vet, as usual, then got several treats from the nice lady at the pharmacy drive up at CVS on Arlington and Washington, LOL! Then he and jasper romped around in the back yard...now he's snoozin. Thanks for the good thoughts!! :)

Oh good. We don't want our Joe Cool to be down and out!

Glad to hear Joe is fine. Also glad to see you really are human, I thought you were one of those X-men, morphing from a blue shadow to a baby to Jersey Joe...LOL =D

glad he's okay! And, I'm not human! I have no pics of me, I hate pics! So I'm an island, and I can't upload new photos anyway!
