ocd

[yogee]

Hello, I am new to this forum and its just great so far..Lots of good breeding.
I am about to have my 5th rottweiler. I had a brother and sister. The brother Yogee died in March of bone cancer. The sister is fine but while at the breeders
she was injured. This is still questionable and developed ocd in her front shoulder. The breeder left this like this til we took her at a year old and had the shoulder fixed. She is almost seven and walks almost like a three legged dog. I would love some advise on how to help her out as her health is perfect.
she swims and is very attentive. Its the walking that is an issue. I had used rimadyl but heard that it is not good for a steady diet of this.. Any help would be appreciated.
