On Thursday I let her just run around the backyard and chase Guiness. I wanted to see if it made any difference when she would go for walks the next day. I left her be wild. The next day on the walk, no skips or weird gaits. So today, because its cold and rainy, Ive been throwing the toy down the hall. We haven't done that in about 7 weeks. So far everything seems fine. I have been doing a little agility. Just having her run the down part of the contact of the dogwalk. Going to find the entry of 2 weaves poles that are open at 8 and 2 o'clock. Once this week I let her run a a pinwheel of low jumps with one rear cross and one front cross. Its so funny, when I tell her "all done". She just stands there staring at me like, "what, you are kidding me right? Hey ,where are you going we just got started".

I put life vests on my dogs last summer, and they seemed really confused by them. They didn't move their legs much at all, just kind of hung out in the water. Maybe their instinct to swim only kicks in if they feel like they are sinking?
Sounds like Miley is making progress. You can tell by her face that she definitely is not a big fan of the water!
can someone get in the UWTM with her?? that could make a huge difference...
Yes someone can get in with her. I guess I could ask her to do it and see if that helps. thanks, Diana
Poor baby! She doesn't look happy. But if she's getting better it's worth it.
OOOH I just love Miley-she is just so sweet and she is going to be so happy when she gets back to full activity.
We saw the picture on Josh's & Jessie's blog and had to check out the story. Keep up the good work and hope every paw feels grrrreat.

Miley looks very cute in the yellow jacket! If you want to give her treat, can you try to give her something easy to swallow like tiny pieces of ham or cheese or chicken.
Poor Miley - she wants out of the water and onto the agility field! Hopefully that will be soon!
