Re: My new "adopted" 3 y/o girl is limping...

Well, I took her in yesterday. The Vet said he's not seeing any hip or elbow dysplatia (so that's good). But, her shoulder is messed up. He called is Osteo-something, lol. Basically he said the cartlege (sp?) is deformed. He said to give her an aspirin an hour before playing ball with her and see if that helps the limping. He said we may need to not run her so hard for a few weeks, but ultimately if the asprin doesn't help, she'll need surgery.

So, while it's not great news, it's not hugely horrible either. We'll start saving for the surgery ;).
