We are about 4 months post surgery. Reina's left front leg limp has completely resolved (i still blame the cipro) and her back right leg (surgery leg) is GREAT! Dr. Hay said the dogs will have intermittent lameness post surgery after exercise ...Reina..NONE! He also said that most dogs only get about 70% use back after surgery...Reina...seems like 100%! He said at 6 months that they will be as good as they are going to get...if nothing more improves...I am OK with it! She is doing great. Watching her run, it seems like she is putting equal weight on both legs..and never favors the other leg. I still know that most dogs within a year will blow out the other knee...I am hoping that since she is doing so well, that Reina will be an exception! Time will tell..but for now we are unrestricted and going strong :)
Hopefully there will be no more posts on this blog :)
