    Started physical therapy today

    A new chapter I hope, a sequel to

    and

    https://www.lab-retriever.net/board/f...55-cookie.html

    I hope all goes well from now on, no more setbacks.

    We made a new friend today too. Helped Cookie endure the horrors of PT and entertained him as well

    I guess it was about this time last year Oban and I were doing PT. He loved it, girls petting him, talking to him. He was usually a bit worse after his stretching and laser and ultrasound and ice but then better the next day. I don't think he enjoyed the hydrotherapy, when we got to that stage. Water is meant to be a big, muddy spot where you can run and splash, not walk sedately. But it noticeably helped too. Hope Cookie benefits from this as much. Is his friend a Springer? A Brittaney?

    PT helped Cookie enormously after he hurt his back in April and I hope it will make a difference now too. At least speed up his recovery and help with the sciatic nerve injury.

    It's a Brittany, a very sweet girl

    Cookie, PT can be a drag and sometimes not very comfortable but keep at it buddy. Sooner than you think the discomfort will be less and less and one day you take off after a thrown ball and Oh what joy will you experience. You're my PT buddy, we both have to keep up the work. I'm pulling for you.

    Plus, there's nothing like a cute girl to be working alongside you.
