Default Bubba's vet appt

I took Bubba to the vets today. After lifting all 50lb him into the
car. Which wasn't easy on him or myself. We drove the 3 blocks to the
vets. Any other time we would have just walked over but it's too much
for him right now.

She watched him walk, flexed his knee the good and the one he's hobbling
on, then we laid him down and she examined him further. It doesn't feel
like he's blown the good knee but she's not ruling it out yet. So a
switch to metcam and keep taking the tramadol but at a higher dose for
the next week. If there's not much improvement then he'll have x-rays
so we can see what's going on.

I'm not holding my breath any and I'm already scrambling around trying
to come up with the money needed to have it repaired if we need to.
It's not like I didn't expect it at some point. When you have one
repaired eventually you almost always have to get the other one done
later on.
