Look how far the lump has come!

Today is the boys 4th session at hydrotherapy, harvey's took to it amazingly, chasing toys round the pool, Chance who was in an amazingly good mood today, had a good couple of laps of the pool, and so we tried him without his muzzle on as he's so used to the lad in the pool now and we couldn't be more proud of him, and we have even got him now independently swimming, chasing and retrieving toys from the water     

Warning lots of photos

first laps round


to........




  


and the award for the nosiest and splashiest dog goes to...

Well done to both of them!

I saw your update on Facebook earlier - great news! He's really coming along!

he's been awesome today! just one of those days where everythings gone right!

Absolutely fantastic!!

Harvey's a livewire, isn't he?   But Chance is amazing! Who would honestly have thought it?  

Really glad he's improving!

Oh ah definite livewire we have in Harv

I know i thought we may possibly get to a none muzzled swim but to get him chasing toys AND taking treats off Aaron in the pool it's been a good day

Goes to show what hard work and patience can do!

Chance looks a lot more relaxed in the pool now - doesn't look quite so worried!

Great pictures    Chance does look very relaxed in the water. Brilliant he was able to swim without his muzzle. I love the jumpy splashy pics of Harv

How is Chance coming on with his limping now?

Brilliant looks like they love it

What fantastic news and photos.

I am totally in love with lad in the pool (Aaron?) He looks so caring and in tune with your dogs, he's a treasure.

I'm sure I'm not alone in following with great interest how your dogs progress, both in and out of the pool.

Chance's leg has been fine for a good while now Caryll - which is why it's so hard to work out what the problem is, still hoping the swimming is doing it some good as he really works it out there

yeah Aaron is the lad in the pool - obviously he's been the same person in the pool every week, he's such a sweetie but that's obviously just his personality but he takes his job very seriously

Glad his leg's doing better!

Yeah, it looks like Chance and Harvey love him!

I had to laugh at Harvey. He's like 'Yeah, pardy time!' and Chance looks like he's trying not to sink at first.

Yes unfortunately neither of them do delicate and coordinated   

They're big manly men - delicate isn't in their vocabulary!

Haha yeah that's the excuse

And they're sticking to it!
