Sophie was up and alert today so I decided to just bring her home instead of another stay at regular vet.
She looks quite stylish in the back of the rig. Motorists weren't too impressed as I took that shot while stopped at a red light that turned green a little too quickly.
Anyway, I'll save you from all the details, but we are home, Syrus is being a good big brother and we will deal with this one day at a time. I was surprised however when they told me they will X-ray at 2 months and if things look good they want to do the 2nd leg at that time. The sooner they can do it the less arthritis will set in.
I like the idea of getting her completely fixed as soon as possible, but -
ouch - the pocketbook.
I had to drug Sophie to get her to settle down. They told me to do that, honest. But it is evident she is happy to be home.
Thanks again for all the good wishes. And I'm sure I will be asking a ton of questions as we go through the stages of recovery. First one: She won't go potty. She wants to go to the end of the driveway that is waaaaaay to far for her to be walking. When or how did others with ACL repairs go potty?
