Took the 13 year old dog to the vet for back leg trouble with heart in mouth.

Good prognosis - with some steroids, she should get another year or two of hip use. She has had a good run!

Proper posting format, please. Could someone alert a moderator?

E.g. "08 Black lab mix, fixed rear delta link"

All my labs have had hind end issues after about 10 years, a dog ramp really helps protect their shoulders and hips when jumping in and out of even a low deck Volvo. Metacam works magic on old dogs and really improves their quality of life when they get old.

T-Rex just picks her up and puts her inthe back, sometimes she uses both arms...

Thats familiar, Old Blackie used to put his front paws up and look at me to hoist his back end up on a bed or in the car. In his 12th year which was his last, he still swam across a 1 mile wide lake and back, he would sleep for about 2 days after......sweet thing! Old dogs are the best!
