I think I wrote here before that one of our dogs tore her ACL ligament a bit ago. We were trying to avoid surgery but it tore to the point there is no option. Today was the surgery consult and surgery is scheduled for Wednesday! Unfortunately, I begin a temporary job on Monday so my mom will be handling a lot of this on her own. I feel bad but I'm already committed to this job through the end of June and I can't back out.
So, we are going to have a hurting puppy for awhile, but she's already been hurting so I guess it can't be much worse. From what we're being told – recovery time will be about a month. So surgery for the pup on her knee now and surgery for me on my mouth later this summer!

Poor puppy @Lolaze . One thing about a dog; at least they have 3 other legs to work with while us humans are screwed.

@Lolaze LOL, yeah, no kidding. We get to use inconvenient things like canes or walkers.

I hope your dog heals quickly. I hope you also heal quickly.
