Thank you so much Jerry!! Appreciate the tip on the socks. They're relatively low cost, so worth a shot but we won't pin all our hopes on them. I'll start a new thread for my next update as we move into the "recovery" stage!

I tried the traction socks on one of my quad Pugs who had mobility problems.  They rotated constantly and the part without traction would invariably end up on the floor making her slipping even worse.

Thinking about you guys today and will be looking for an update.

These videos are priceless, absolutely  priceless!  Forrest really is in his element.  Love how he picks out the perfect stick and lays down for a good chew.  Of course, the perfect stick can only be found soaking wet in the stream .  He is soooo Happy and content.

That smile.....that smile spot.....I'm smiling  too watching this!

Thanks so much for sharing.  Priceless.

Hugs
