Thanks Sally!

I feel like I saw some tiny progress in his use of the leg today, but hard to be sure, he certainly seems more settled and comfortable, and more adventurous at trying to get around, which makes me hope there’s less pain, which can only mean good things!

Thanks everyone, your replies were lovey to read!

Physio went well, she said he’s lost some muscle in the back leg and is very weak there, so we’ve been doing daily leg strengthening on it, he also had some laser therapy, electro-magnetic therapy and infra red to help with pain, he loved it and was so relaxed. 

We had another post injury first today - This morning after doing a wee, Hamish carried on standing up for a good ten seconds. I felt like a mum watching her baby taking his first steps!! We will keep you all posted with updates.

Hi all.

hamish had his second rehab appointment yesterday, she was pleased with his progress and could tell we’d been working hard on his massages and exercises. He has some new ones now which is around us retraining him on how to sit properly, stand and walk, as he’s learnt some weird ways of doing them all that have likely contributed to the hip problem. 

He is really well in himself, but his hopping around like mad so having to slow him down now! We have a dog pram which lets me take him out without breaking my back, he loves the time out and gets lots of attention, you can see it lifts his spirits as well!
