Yes, I'm updating on my puppy dog who will be ten years old next May.
We were able to pick her up from the vet yesterday after they weened her off of her pain IV.
She had her ACL operated on yesterday on her other leg. She had her right leg operated on just a year or two ago and now we had to do the left.
My poor baby didn't have a whole lot of strength yesterday and it was hard getting her out of the car.
As soon as she hit the house though she was roaming and checking everything out. Making sure she was home and nothing changed.
She ate well and she was about as active as we could hope for.
Today we start getting her to use her leg a bit. She was holding it up yesterday so today she needs to use it at least a little.
Two weeks she gets her stitches out.
Wish us luck for today because my dog is about as hard headed as the rest of this family.

What is ACL? She does look a bit tired and sick. Wishing her a speedy recovery.

@arunima25 I don't know what it stands for. I just know it's a muscle in your leg and in her case, her back legs. She's doing a lot better now. She goes to get her stitches out on sept first
