I\u2019ll be honest, I don\u2019t have the vaguest idea what that means. I do know that they have repaired his knee so he doesn\u2019t need to cruciate ligament anymore, but as to exactly what they did, that\u2019s a mystery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is apparent is that he is feeling very sorry for himself and has had quite a lot of hair shaved. He can only go out for toilet breaks and won\u2019t be able to do very much exercise for a few weeks. He already had a bigger crate than either Shadow or I have, but Mum has said if he has got to spend more time in it then she is getting him a bigger one still, so he can at least move around for some of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_9183-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17339\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Missing Swimming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shadow is really missing going swimming. She says her arthritis is worse. As soon as he can do some exercise Aristotle has asked to go too. Even though he pretends not to like it, he knows it does him so much good. Because of the problems with his front legs it\u2019s a far better form of exercise for him than walking. I\u2019d like to go too, but I don\u2019t have an excuse. Mum says I should be glad I don\u2019t have a medical need and I am, but it would still be fun. I\u2019d quite like a pool party for all of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Waiting for Lia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are all waiting for news from Lia of when she goes into labour. Her puppies are due tomorrow, so could happen at any time. It\u2019s very exciting. I just want to send her all our best wishes for an easy labour and hope everything goes well. As soon as we get news we\u2019ll let you know how many puppies there are and their names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Wilma explains that Aristotle has had a Cranial Closing Wedge Ostectomy on his right rear leg.
