We spend most of this episode talking about an elderly Weimaraner. Kim has been treating him for some time for problems with his back legs. Over the weekend his mobility acutely worsened and he seemed more painful. There was concern that this might be due to a deterioration in his long-term back leg problems. Euthanasia was being considered if his quality of life was going to be affected going forward.

On examination, Kim identified a front leg problem as the probable cause of his current deterioration. Kim cannot be sure but suspects a stumble/fall in the garden. So far he has responded well to Kim's treatments and the antiinflammatory pain-killers prescribed by his vet. The hope is that he will recover from this front end problem and return to his baseline quality of life with ongoing back leg management.

Kim will be seeing him again in a few days and we will update you in the next episode.

At the end of today's episode, we also discuss the importance of the language we use when speaking to non-medical pet carers. How to explain things simply, accurately and realistically. The importance of avoiding both sugar-coating and unnecessary scaremongering!
