We just found out that our 9 month old cane corso, Bear has a problem with his left ACL and that he will have a problem is his right one in the near future. We are trying the restricted activity approach first. All the articles I've read involve dogs that are older. Any helpful ways to keep him from running and jumping would help.
A little bit about our situation... Bear sleeps on our bed with us. He has a doggie bed he sleeps in when he wants too. (It is now located in my emptied out closet with a baby gate in place of my door but he won't go in it without a great deal of force and I'm scared about hurting his knee more). We have a doggie door that is now locked so I can supervise him outside. We also have a 16 year old lab pointer that I have to keep separated because she keeps tying to play with Bear and trying to get him to run up and down the hallway with her.
