took my beautiful shepherd to the vets this morning coz he's gone lame in one leg. turns out he has a disease of the bone marrow which has flared up during the last week.
he's been in chronic pain and can barely walk. the x-rays show the marrow in his leg bones is so inflamed the bones are actually bulging out.
sick man, the poor little man must be in absolute pieces.
he's gonna be on drugs and absolute rest for up to a YEAR, no walks, no playing, no nothing.
vet told me if even goes in the garden and chases the cat when the disease is flaring up he will be crippled for life!
unbelievable. the only good news is that if we manage him right he will be perfect in 6-12 months. wierd but this condition only attacks the bones when they're growing.
heres a couple of pics of the him taken a few days ago just before he went down.
his name is Zak
