| Alot of exercise is good - but strenous exercise is cautioned at this age. So alot of playing, short walks, chasing balls, etc. is good - but long strenous walks wouldn't be recommended - either would be jumping on and off furniture or running/jogging (I don't mean the typical puppy running though). Try and stick with exercise and play that wouldn't be too hard on the joints/bones.
Hip dysplasia is a genetic disease - so even if a dog is diagnosed with it - it doesn't mean the owner did anything wrong. Most importantly - relax and enjoy Mopsey - don't stress too much about it. I'm sure what you are doing is just fine!!! Kristen |
Thanks again, Kristen. I am a worrier! Can't wait till I have upright kids... then I will most definatly lose my mind! LOL Ok, so I guess my routine is ok. She does seem bored at times, and would let me know by bringing her toy saying "come on mom, chase me!" So we run around the house like two crazy maniacs and then collapse on the couch exhausted. Its fun! I am taking a long breath...exhale... and trying not to worry so much. LOL  |
| Marley,
Try and come up with some different games - maybe she'll get less bored. I know alot of people who play hide and seek with their sheepies - maybe you could do that. Also - it's a great time to work on some obedience and training - even teaching "tricks" - you kill two birds with one stone! Any time you spend working with her - even if it's just playing or teaching tricks - you strengthen your bond and will do wonders for her temperment and behavior. Have fun!!!! They grow up so fast - enjoy! Kristen |
