9 Week X-Rays -100% bone healed!!!!


Yippee, yeah, we are so excited! Casey's bone is 100% healed from his TPLO! He now can use stairs at his discretion, jump up into the car, go onto the beds, and be off leash. Wow, he will be so thrilled not to have me in tow for his potty breaks! We are so happy. He has done amazingly well throughout this process. He is still coming off his sedation from the xrays and feeling quite hung over! You can see from the photo!
So from here we take the next 3 months to work on building his leg muscle more to rid him of the dreaded limp. It is not fairly noticeable, but at night when he is tired you see it more. So we will keep increasing either his durations of time on his walks, or the number of walks. Both are tough as it is a struggle with the two kids to get all the walks in on a day. Hoping with the summer it will get easier. After the 3 months he should be all clear to do what ever he wants! Including ball again! Still no frisbee though...sorry buddy:(

Thanks to all of you for your support and to those of you who are keeping updated through this blog!
