Ohh Ali I am so glad things are turning around for you hon, pets are wonderful therapy for us.. I think mabie it would help for the foot desensitising if you just rested your leg/foot against the fur to start (psst.. yr pup looks like mabie a "frobo" to me) I hope your feeling better cold wise.. it's amazing how uncomfortable a cough can be for the RSD areas.. shakes it up some ay.

Boo is also a name that pops into the head when looking at that picture too.. or doodle.. then you can call him doodle bug..

Hugz Ali and Andrea you are a blessing to us here,
Sandra
