no the vet said nothing about helping him, because he is 27. But we love him and we just want medicane or something to make it so he isen't in pain or anything.



He kinda wobbles, not a limp. and he dosen't really pick up his front leg.

we don't know if he hurt himself, because he just started having these problems in the past year.

when we got him, our friend said that his only problem was he could only hold 150 lbs
