Lindt buddy
we need more pictures of you Pal.... Sally and Clare have paid their homage to me and I do very much appreciate all of the attention!!! I am a little embarrassed though โcause this is your page after all and I do think you are rather โstatelyโ looking yourself! (Hehehehe... stately... States.... Hehehehe... okay, never mind!!!๐ค)
Anyhow, hoping your doing well in your recovery Lindt. Big snuggles to you and your brother.ย
All the very best from Super Stu and his four legged minions!ย
Hi everyone!
I havent been taking many photos since i broke my phone with the really good camera and have been working more, but not to fear, more pics coming soon! As an update Lindt has been doing great!! He is almost pretty much back to normal, still resting a lot but gets up and moves when he wants and definitely comes hopping when he hears the food in his bowl.ย
Since we're restricted to short leash walks,ย we've been playing mini games with carrot treats to help reduce boredom like "where's the treat" lots of sit and down commands to strengthen up those back legs and yummy massages to keep his muscles and joints happy.ย ย
More pics coming! I'll try to snap some during our next little game session on the porchย
Morning Lindt
How wonderful to hear that you are almost back to your Hoppy new self! It sounds like your playing lots of good mind & body games too! Way to go Mum! And such healthy treats! Youโll be the Trim Tripawd, hopping around, schmoozinโ all the ladies! Yeah, looking good buddy!
Sorry to hear about your phone, but we can wait for more pics....
way to rest up well buddy, youโre dojng great in your recovery. Tell Rocky we said Hi!

Good job Lindt!ย We use obedience and tricks all the time to burn energy and work on Elly's core strength.ย And 'hiding' food is a great game as well.ย I used to feed Elly her breakfast in a treat dispensing toy.
Can he 'sit pretty'? That might need to wait for suture removal- not sure about that.ย Supposedly one of the best tricks to work on core strength.ย I do that with Elly as well but she needs help since she is missing a back leg.

A little love for Rocky, Lindt's brother ๐. Here's a video of him playing his favorite game, "Find It"
That is such an awesome way to keep him sharp and thinking. Good job ma!
