Well, Fluffy's making good progress. He's happy right now (which is VERY VERY good!). We've started seeing him try to place his feet - sometimes he'll tandem if you drag them on the ground (toes taped or in his booties of course).
We're finally back to being able to stand with some balance assist to do things like eat dinner - a HUGE accomplishment!
We took Fluffy to rehab this week ($138, phew!). It didn't seem like he was really ready for the underwater treadmill yet, and I don't need to pay $95/visit right now to have someone stand in water with him when we have a tub at home. That said, they are VERY good with him - it's financial more than anything else.
There's also the incredible bonding experience we get doing rehab with him. All of a sudden that four years of graduate school is turning out to be awfully useful. Who would have ever guessed I'd moonlight as a canine exercise physiologist? :-)
The best part of all, though, it that he's happy - and getting stronger!
