Day 90 (12/05/17): vet visit

Terra stopped favoring her back right leg by Sunday morning, but I kept our Tuesday afternoon appointment. She shied away from the ear thermometer but allowed Dr Diedrich to bend her back legs this way and that. The doctor couldn't feel anything wrong with her back right leg. Surprisingly, her back left leg was more tight and she didn't want to stretch it as far back, but no sign of pain per se. So at this point, we're assuming that the problem was probably just normal boisterous puppy play.

I wish I had taken a photo of the tech trying to listen to Terra's heartbeat and getting licked all over her face and hair.

Her weight was 83.5 lbs. She's continuing to grow but is a bit slimmer since she's been having diarrhea for multiple days again. I think it was set off by eating a bunch of cat poop in the yard, and it seems to always take her a long time to normalize once her GI tract is inflamed.
