15-minute walks

As from today, I have increased Dylan's walks to 15 minutes each. He was doing very well this morning, however, I did see that his leg was slightly more uncomfortable - which is to be expected.

I have also only four tablets left of the Rimadyl. As from tonight, I shall half the dosage for the next four days and then stop alltogether. We'll see how Dylan will feel with that. If there's too much pain, I will obviously get some more. However, a little more discomfort wouldn't be a bad idea as he is trying to jump about too much at the moment and I have to constantly stop him.

Yesterday, I also allowed him into the sitting room whilst I was watching TV. I asked him to settle next to me, which he did. Then I didn't pay attention to him for a few seconds (I swear that's all it was) and when I look up, Dylan is on the sofa! What a cheeky chappy. I carried him off the sofa and back into the kitchen.
I will allow him into the sitting room again occasionally, but in future it will be on lead, so I feel when he is sneaking off. LOL
