[Dailydrool] Honey is starting to walk again!!!

Hello everyone, I don't know if you remember me  writing about Honey, about 
her losing the use of her back legs.  Both legs  were totally limp, we saw 
a therapist  for her, and then ordered her some  wheels from Eddie's.  We 
have been doing the therapy on our own with her  back legs, and our vet said 
some dogs get the use of their legs back again, he  has seen it happen.  
Well, we are just thrilled to pieces, little by  little, her legs are getting 
stronger all the time.  She stands all by  herself again, and she now walks 
about  10 feet all by herself without  falling on the weaker leg.  But she 
turns around on her butt, and it gets  her legs back into position, and she 
gets up again, and  goes.
When she runs, she scampers like a little bunny, it is  so cute.
She is doing just remarkable, I was so afraid this day  would never come.  
so the nerves in the back are calming down apparently,  and she has feelings 
again in her legs.  the cart is just sitting off to  the side right now, as 
long as she is walking, we will continue this way.   I just get so excited 
to see her doing that.  And she loves not having to  have mama always right 
behind her with the sling, her independence is slowly  coming back.  Just 
wanted to share with you how well she is doing....it  makes my heart just 
smile.  And she comes over to me, wagging her tail,  just like she is saying, 
look mom, I did it all by myself.............thanks for  listening, Barbie and 
her recovering Honey  girl.
