Truffles is still having a hard time. We’re still swimming her 3 days a week, but she’s still unable to walk on her own. All the vets we’ve talked to have given up on a diagnosis so we have no clue what’s up with her.
However, we’ve made a bit of a discovery. If we wrap her paws with vet wrap, she has a lot more traction to go about in her cart. And today we tried getting her to walk with the assistance of a handle we bought when her legs were first going bad. The combination of the vet wrap and cookie motivation (Truffles has always been very food focused) we eventually got her to walk across the living room with assistance. Vast improvement over the last time we tied this, when she didn’t hold up herself at all and was just so much dead weight.

My thoughts are with you and Truffles. What a sweet dog.
