A Good Day

Edited to add: It’s Mosby’s 4 week ampuversary!

Today has been a good day for Mosby – and we needed it! We started out with a trip to PT, which went well, although he still can’t do the water treadmill until his infection is totally cleared. Boo. He’s doing great with sit-to-stands, cookie stretches (why don’t I have cookie stretches in my exercise program?), and hip rocking. Last night I had him do “high five” while sitting. He’s a super star.

Meanwhile, his infection does look a little better and is hopefully healing, and we tried peanut butter for his meds for the first time. He ate the meloxicam with no problems. We have slightly bigger pills tonight, so we’ll see how it goes, but it’s promising. His tummy has mostly settled, as well.

The weather is nice outside and it’s put him in a good mood. He also played with his nylabone today! Ok, I sort of encouraged him, but he did romp a bit and chew on it. He enjoyed our trips outside. I’m going to try to post some videos and a photo below. He is having a nice nap right now – he deserves it!

Ok, trying to post a video of him today:

And here he is chewing his bone today:

Last but not least, this is from a few days ago, but Mosby wanted to show off one of his best tricks:

  1. Mosby, that is an impressive trick indeed! Glad to hear you were feeling good and getting a little vitamin D! And that PT sounds like fun. Treats! Keep on truckin, Colonel!

    Cheers,
    Kat and Astro

  2. LOVE him!!! Glad you are having a good day. Firm believe in Vitamin D therapy. Shelby loved to sit in the sunshine pre and post-amp. It was the best.

    Keep on going!!!

  3. That’s a great trick Mosby! None of our babies have the patience for that one lol. Murphy loves peanut butter with his meds, too …one trick is to have a 2nd bite ready so that he swallows the bite with the pill in it faster 🙂 We keep a jar of peanut butter just for the dogs, that way the spoon can get dipped back in (well, you know, if Murphy gets some, then Cassie & Max need some too!)
    Looking good running down the driveway, too Mosby!
