What's Up Doc?

Recently, Mercy paid a pop in visit to her personal physician.  An opportunity to ask, What's up, Doc? as well as to show off all of the progress she has made over time.  The following notes are a summary about Mercy's health as described by her Veterinarian:

All of Mercy's joints were affected by the disease ** which caused growth deformaties and swellings.  At first Mercy's joints were painful (Sept. 2010)

but the bones have remodelled in the last year and she has good function with little pain.

...Recommend continued physical rehabilitation for good function and muscle tone as Mercy has responded extremely well. 

That means continued time in the pool for our Mercy-bear. 

Onward with the swim time, sweet alligator!

Good, good girl!!

**Hypertrophic Osteodystrophy (HOD) was one of the diagnosis put forward upon initial and multiple Vet. specialists appointments.
