無時不刻在跛腳!!><

[阿寶麻]

上星期阿寶拆完線之後(星期六)到家後，就順道帶他帶我們家附近的公園走走，結果回來後，就跛腳，經過星期日一天的休息，我今天下班時，又帶阿寶去家附近的公園走走(約20分鐘)，可是回到家後又跛腳了，…那我真的不知道，到底還要不要帶他出去呢，還是讓他整整休息1-2個月呢!可是我又想起，CHD寶寶須要強化他的肌肉，可是又如阿寶這樣，走沒幾步，就跛腳…><，我該怎麼辨呢!那散步回來後，我是要熱膚還是冰膚呢!

Dear Miss Liu:
I like to know how bad the limping after 20 minutes of walking. If Ar-bau isn't exercise regularly, he will show limping and uncomfortable after every walking. You can try to walk him every other day with short distance in the beginning. Once he feels OK, then you increase the time and distance. Also keeps him on initial dose of Cosequin and Pain control medicine as needed for the first 2 weeks. You have to be patient and relax. sometimes the limping is due to over use of muscle. Continuing exercise is very important for CHD dog but you have to give them time to build up the muscle first. If Arbau can recover after one day of rest which means the limping in most of time is due to overusing of his muscle. Cold pack after exercie is OK.
