Ok, I don't go for the whole house and diaper scene. However for injuries and recovery related times you do what you gotta do. If you haven't ever read about Lemon the duck you should, the owners designs might come in hand. http://www.lemontheduck.com/id9.html

i agree. i think some animals are just happier outside, and that includes ducks and geese. i really appreciate the link. That gives us some ideas on how to make something to help her walk while she is (hopefully) recovering. i am picturing any walking device becoming a tug and chew toy with the other geese, though.

The acupuncture went well and she was very calm last night. i kept her inside for the evening. But i do want to let her out a little bit each day.

Iain Utah - i love those shoes! What a crack up!
