luna – Oct 20, 2012 12:00 AM

Sorry for the break between log postings, I should be back on a regular schedule now. In the last few postings we've been referencing some cold weather limping on Luna. After consultation with the University of Minnesota, we decided to get an x-ray on Luna. We are waiting for a complete report from the U of Minnesota to determine if there are further issues with the hardware. We should know more next week. Luna did extremely well throughout the immobilization, transport and recovery. We started the process by 8 am and by noon she was resting comfortably on her dog bed and blanket. We fed her a deer leg prior to releasing her to give her some meat in her stomach and to give her the opportunity to eat without competition. Despite some manipulation of her leg during the x-rays, she was actively running with the pack by dark and showed no ill effects from the exam.
