Re: New vet, new problems!

I have read your recommendations. I am planning to take Smokie on three 15 minute walks a day, luckily we live within 1 minutes walk of a field, i intend to just let him have a sniff around, i was recommended a supplement (NAF: Products - HipRite) and when possible to the beach for a swim and a play on the sand. We have also moved his bed closer to a radiator and put some extra cushioning in. He likes to play tug of war with our other dog, would you consider this a way of building muscle? Or is it too rough? Is there anything else we can do?

He is showing no signs of pain, but he does start to run like a rabbit towards the end of his walk, that is when i take him home. Is it true that showing HD at this age is a bad omen?
