Forced rest?!?

In an effort to finally clear up this nagging limp Holly still has in her right, front wrist (the vet reminded me that that’s the correct terminology- on the back paws it’s an ankle, on the front it’s a wrist) we went back to the vet yesterday. She gave Holly a full work-up and said the best thing to do is to rest her as completely as possible- this means not even walking round the block and only outside to relieve herself and then only on a leash. She’s back on an anti-inflammatory and, to stop her going totally crazy without exercise, a mild sedative as well.

It’s really tough because she doesn’t understand, but hopefully the sedative will take the edge off, and once she shows some improvement we can gradually start with leash walks around the block again and work our way up from there.
