My dr recommended physical therapy. I went to an orthopedist. Told me to jog/walk versus run and reduce length/distance. Recommended to continue doing squats and deadlifts and to reduce weight. Add more stretching and planks. Prescribed an NSAID called Meloxicam. I haven’t started therapy yet but I am walking 3 miles per day to stay active at 3.5-4 mph. Jogging doesn’t feel comfortable. I ordered a brace to see if that will help.
I pay $10 a year to license my dog. My dog has to be rabies vaccinated to get his license. He’s issued a tag with an ID#. The vet has to report his vaccine info. I get a certificate with a vaccine number too. I suppose I’m fortunate to live in an area with this as a requirement but I think it’s pretty easy to get around this too. I live in a metro area. I suppose in more rural areas, licensing and registration of dogs isn’t the norm.
