Hi Naomi,

I didn't realise you were in the UK too. Whereabouts are you? In terms of kibble, Orijen is available here, both online and in some vets/stores, and their Whole Prey range is high in quality protein and low in carbs. Might be worth a try?

We see a rehab vet in Buckinghamshire. I don't know whether that's anywhere near you. We did underwater treadmill initially and she taught me exercises to do at home to build up Meg's core strength. I found it very helpful. We still go around once a month for acupuncture, laser etc when needed, as Meg sometimes gets knots and tension in her spine. She is now a year post amp and we do a short core strength session every other day at home.

Well that sounds perfect. If there's somewhere you already know and have a relationship with. That's absolutely ideal. 

Meg doesn't have wheels, no. I did buy her a stroller recently. Like Barney she was extremely active pre amp, and has continued to be very active, chasing squirrels, swimming etc., but we don't walk nearly as far  as we used to. Meg would for sure, but I worry about her remaining joints. I thought the stroller would give us more options. 

I don't know much about wheels. I have heard that it's not usually advised to use them until you get to the point where you have to, but others will know more and certainly your rehab vet/physio should be able to advise. 

Good luck with it. Barney is goooooorgeous. And he's lucky to have such a devoted Mum.
