Just wondering if anybody else has had this problem.  My newfie Mocha had back leg amputation due to bone cancer 5 weeks ago.  For the first 4 weeks she was doing okay, getting up and walking or I should say hopping.  She was not thrilled about it but she would do it with some coaching.  But then she stopped trying to get up and instead will get from one place to another by dragging her bottom.  I have to admit, she's pretty good at doing that and can get from one place to another pretty quickly.  I don't know if she is getting lazy about trying to stand on 3 legs and finds this more convenient or if there's something else going on. We had her checked at the vet's office last week who couldn't find anything wrong with her leg.  Didn't do an x-ray though which I was hoping he would.  Has anyone else had this happen to them.  I thought we were doing well but then this setback came along.  I feel like it's one step forward, 2 steps back in regard to her recovery progress.  It's so frustrating.
