I noticed Tuesday that Jessie was favoring her left front leg a bit, and lastnight she was still limping on it. I checked her out as best I could, and clipped her toenails while I was at it, and didn't notice anything out of sorts, and she doesn't show pain if I poke and prod on her, so I'm hoping she just maybe sprained it or something while she was on the tie out, and praying that it isn't pano.

I cut her daily food intake down to about 1.5 cup (from 2 cups a day) probably about a week to a week and a half ago. I weighed her Tuesday, and she's 45 pounds, and turned 6 months old on December 6th. She was already 10 pounds heavier than Jak was at the same age when I got her a month ago, and a little bigger overall (height and 'width'). He was thinner, but stockier as a puppy. She's got more meat on her, but her legs, tail, and head are more 'delicate' than his was at the same age. I can't remember for sure, but she's probably around 5-8 pounds heavier than he was at 6 months. She isn't 'thick' though; she has a defined waist and you can feel her ribs when you rub her sides.

Please keep your fingers and eyes and arms and legs and toes crossed that we don't have to deal with pano and that she just did something to herself while she was tied out.
