Ripley has had her 8 week check up and xray today - the vet is very pleased with her and says she can begin to go out for short lead walks, gradually building her up to a mile.

I bet she will be so chuffed tomorrow to see a different scene. She's a bit groggy tonight but happy to be home.

The vet wasn't enthusiastic about hydrotherapy - reconned walking was better, so we'll see.
