Hello and welcome to Tawnie. This lovely little bean has a sore arm.

No one has really been able to identify the source of the mild lameness. However sadly, she is overweight. We know that fat cells aggravate inflammation and make it worse. We know that just 6% body fat loss gives the same pain relief as your none steroidal anti inflammatories.

So we gave mum some passive range of movement work to do at home on the limb, and got her on a weightloss plan.

Its not been easy as Tawnie is very particular about her food choices. But we are thrilled to report that she is slowly loosing weight and her lameness has gone! She even started jumping on the sofa again!

Well done mum and Tawnie! There will be many comfy years ahead of you. Keep up the good work on the diet.
