Shadow is feeling so much better, and has been very impressive showing his status. Not only is he doing chin rests, but in today's check he did a full ride-up behavior. Pretty impressive for a wolf that is 11 1/2 years old this week. He can also jump from the front of the den to the top of the den in one leap. Malik tried this today and couldn't get his back leg up to the top without some help from wolf care staff. We have always had a policy that any wolf over 7 years of age gets Cosequin and Durlactin supplements, and we don't think we'd have as much mobility in these older animals without it. You may have noticed that we updated our wolf care wish list, and if anyone wants to donate, these nutritional supplements, as well as other items are shown on our website.
