Tall Turtle- some info about B's weight

Hello- I spoke with Carrie at Alemeda East the other day- and I expressed concern about Max not being back to his normal weight yet. She said to keep him LEAN!!! She was actually happier about the weight he is now ( 72) vs. his 85 before surgery. Makes sense to keep them slim through recovery- but she says she is a real "see the ribs" kind of gal. Within reason of course!!!

I know you were looking for ways to "fatten" up B.. and I wanted to pass on this bit of info.

We are taking Carrie's advice and keeping Max healthy and thin!!! Anything to make his recovery easier- AND to keep him with us for as long as possible.

Thank you for the weight imput and that is so true. It is just we had her shaved and well you know how they look then.I am feeding her Innova nd Chicken Soup for the Dog's soul. 1/2 CUP OF EACH IN THE MORN AND AT NIGHT. sHE HAS NOT TRIED TO GET UP AGAIN. sHE SEEMS SO WEAK IN TH EREAR AND THE REAR LOOKS sO MUCH SMALLER.sORRY FoR THE CAPS,WAS NOT LOOKING. She walks ok, just kind of wobbly at times but she can stand or balance herself. But she quit trying to get up, I think it is cause her back end just spins around when she tries to get up. Her ph is in San Antonio and we can only go up once a week. The therapy the ph said to do is when B is stand and she doesn't stand for long.
I am feeling depressed about B today, it seems like I should be doing more.
