Yay!!!  GO McGwire!!!!  Is Mac a rear or front amp???  Koda and Mac are so close in diagnosis and amp dates and now we have both gone through a similar thing within the space of 2 weeks of each other.  I guess they are both retrievers and similar in size and build etc. Our vet thinks Koda had a little joint pain.  My first thoughts were the worst.  When you see those back legs not working the best.  Sounds like plenty of rest is on the cards!!!!  Just after the vets visit Koda's back leg started to give out quite bad, but after his injections (can't remember the name of them but they attract all the good stuff like glucosamine from the blood stream into the joints) and vitamins he is on (Glucosamine and Chondroiton and Omega 3) and pain tabs he seems much better and stronger.  We are very relieved for you guys!!!!

Storm and Koda:)

Doing a little happy/dance/hop for you!!!

Coming in late on this one, but want you to know you have my support and good wishes.  Glad to hear McGuire had a good checkup and just needs some rest.
