I think I'm starting to formulate a plan of action. lol. I'll advise them to start trying to get the weight off of him by keeping him up and in turn he won't be running around hurting himself further anyway, so....sounds good to me.

Dealing with weight isn't just about keeping him off grass. He NEEDS free choice movement. He needs exercise. He needs calories, just a different kind of calories.

yeah, but he's a dummy. He runs around like an idiot and bucks and twists and re injures himself.

Their driveway is a mile long- no joke. AND it's hilly. Guess who's gonna start going for walks? mwahahahaha.~Brit
