Our girl Lola was born in 2019 before COVID, but her early development, including having open growth plates, was during COVID. During that time, she had what was assumed by us and her Vet as a soft tissue injury in her front right. It presented as intermittent limping, resulting from some rough puppy play with Splash.

Since it was assumed to be a soft tissue injury it was managed with crate rest, leash walks, NSAIDs, Duralactin, supplements and body work. Lola would go for long periods without symptoms, but they would reappear from time to time, and we would return to managing them as described.
