malik – Oct 8, 2006 12:00 AM

Malik has been very active lately, as last week’s logs discussed. This week, when he was photographed, we noticed a bit of an odd stance, and will be monitoring it closely. His back left knee seems to be turned a bit to the side. While this could have been an odd moment caught on camera, Malik does have a history of knee weakness. He’s been on cosequin since he was 2 years old. Staff have not noticed any favoritism toward this knee or inability to run, but will keep observing for any problems. In this week’s video, you see Shadow doing a threat display keeping Malik from the carcass, but Malik returns the display with a growl and hackles. This is why we feed large quantities, so everyone gets their share.
