Toots update
Well Toots is still limping, although not as bad.
I had to make the decision to have a friend look after Dottie as trying to separate them wasn't working.
Even with them in different rooms ,they would stress trying to get to each other.
Vet says Toots needs as much rest as possible. She thinks it's soft tissue damage, so hopefully with time will heal.
She's missing all her classes, her walks, her best friend Dottie.
All a bit distressing.

Oh no, not good news
With a bit of luck, the peace and quiet may well be what she needs to get on the mend.

Re: Toots update
Sounds like a good solution made there, although they will miss each other. Hopefully with the extra peace and quiet Toots will mend all the quicker.

Re: Toots update
Thanks everyone.
I'm sure it was the right decision, she's much calmer without Dottie.
I bought a book about mind games for dogs by Claire Arrowsmith and a new toy.
Trying to keep her stimulated in ways other than running around!
The new toy is great. You put the treats under the slidey parts and she has to work out how to slide the things to get to the treat! Keeps her amused for ages!

It was about £20 Sazzle, but very well made and robust. She hasn't managed to destroy it..yet!
