Layla...

She is amazing me and her vet with every day that passes!

Layla now stands on her own about 75% of the time she's eating or drinking. It just started this past weekend. She went to her water bowl, put her head down, and as her started drinking, her legs came under her, pushed up, and she held the standing position for about 20 seconds Sometimes her legs are crossed, her paws are knuckled, but she is standing, all by herself

We've made the difficult decision to really cut back on her rehab and acupuncture. We just can't afford it anymore. We take her twice a week now, and I think we will cut back to once or twice a month. Her vet says we're doing an amazing job at home anyway and she can't believe how much she is still improving. But we really aren't doing a whole lot at home other than some massage or helping her stand as we're sitting there watching tv or something. We play with her a lot more and have her run around and play fetch. She even freely scoots herself across the hardwood between the kitchen and living room now!

I just wanted to share how well she is doing with you guys I'm trying to get a video of her standing to show all of you and everyone who has supported us and followed our story so closely on YT. I don't know how I could have gotten through this without all of you!

Here she is two nights ago after I attempted to give her a snazzy new short haircut
