Surgery Update - One Year Later


Wow - I can't believe I forgot to post on the one year anniversary of Sadie's Tightrope CCL surgery! In a way it's a good thing, because it means that things have been going very well.

Sadie is doing great! She gets some glucosamine chondroitin each morning with her food (to help with arthritis) but other than that she's med free and pain free. I still get paranoid about letting her run around and get too crazy spinning and jumping. My worse fear is that the other leg will give out or she'll re-injure the bad leg.

But she's really done well. She still doesn't have the same range of motion in the "bad leg" but it's only noticeable when she sits (it doesn't bend as much). I took a video to show how spry she is, but ironically filmed a spill! :-( Thankfully it didn't effect her at all. A testament to her healing and the success of the Tightrope procedure.
