I feel like the brace caused an oops moment but I just do not know for sure.
Cosmo is limping today. We have removed the brace and are limiting Cosmo's activity. We plan on reintroducing the brace with the beginning schedule (2 hours at a time) in a few days. I do think that having Cosmo swim without the brace is the way to go. It allows him more movement of the leg. In a couple days, we will allow him back in the pool, minus the brace.
I want to believe that the brace is protecting the leg while it heals. I just am unclear why he started walking off kilter and what caused him to fall yesterday. Without any answers coming from Cosmo, we will just keep plodding along and making adjustments as we go
