Librela and Us

 Phod has been taking his shot for almost a year and a half and Lee for a few months.  We have both been lucky that it seems to be helpful. Besides not being uncomfortable, Phod finds it easier to get up and down. He will even occasionally get on the furniture and he is more likely to do the stairs.

Lee is less tippy. She runs more. She also gets on the furniture more often.


Lady says the draw back of less pain is we do want to explore more. Exploring more means trying to sneak next door, because we have just decided this is part of our yard. Hailey especially loves to track the 3 cats who live next door and some of the many, many strays around. Callie's people think it is funny to watch Lady and Man chase us around their yard. Sometimes they come out to laugh at her!

Going down the road to Callie's. Lady yelling "unsanctioned visit" didn't help. 

Coming out of the bush between our houses on the road, hoping to give Lady the brush off.

We know this treatment may not be the best for everyone. And while Lady gets a bit annoyed with us, her main goal for our lives right now is quality of life, and this is improving it. We feel lucky to have this option.

  4. We think Lady and Man should let you just be free range dogs!
    We are glad Librela is working for you....Mama is letting me give it another try since now I am having CCL issues, and so far it's doing a better job dulling my pain.
    xoxo,

  7. We're glad to hear you both are feeling so good that you want to go exploring more. Lady should think the benefit of all that chasing you around is just adding steps to her day. BOL!

  8. We’ve been doing the Librela shot with Ryder for a few months now. I think it’s helping, but I wish we had tried it sooner.
