great news on the prelims!
how is she doing now?

[Sarah]

She's doing really well, her owner is getting hopeful again. Still working on her rehab, but so far it seems like it might be working.

I sure hope the rehab works, she is so very beautiful and surely deserves to be out and about doing her agility(making you all proud)

Ooh just reading this now.

Old lady Buddy has the same thing caused by a bone spur. The ONLY thing that worked for her was the steroid injection. (we had tried metacam, tramadol and gabapentin, acupuncture, hydrotherapy and chiro).

I'm glad Eva is doing better. It can be a hugely frustrating condition.

Also, as a devils advocate side note, Buddy's limp will flare up whenever she tries to do too much but I believe this is from the tendon rubbing against the bone spur and hopefully Eva can continue to compete!

Well the most recent line of thought, from a rehab specialist, is that the tendinitis is a symptom, not the cause of the problem, so she's on rehab exercises which hopefully will get her back to normal function.
