Touchdown!

Maile is healing fast and today she started using her wrapped leg for balance when she was standing still. Of course she doesn't stand still that often, but that's beside the point.

She wants to jump and wrestle and run the stairs but I've got her on leash to make sure she doesn't rip up her knee right after getting it repaired. You can see that she's been working on chewing her way to freedom occasionally.

In the evening she hangs out with the big girls and loves getting time out of her crate. I just have to watch that Chima doesn't walk over the top of her because Chima has a tendency to just walk over whatever and whoever happens to be in her path.

Anyhow, we look forward to seeing little Miss Maile start using that leg more and building up some strength. It was only minimally used for so long that it has very little muscle so she has plenty of PT work in her future.
