Re: Cruciate operation diary

Hi everyone,been a while since an update but glad to say amber is doing great.
she went for her 8 week xray yesterday and glad to say he gave her the all clear!! he said the xray revealed better results than he expected and i can now increase exercise gradually each day on lead only for 6 wks after this she can then have gradual unrestricted exercise
He said he does not need to see her again as everything is fine with no sign of osteoarthritus.
she is doing 15min walks 4 times a day at the mo and he said gradually increase this.
it has been a long 6mths for amber with both her cruciates going but her face when i grabbed her lead for the first time told me its all been worth it.
also thanks to everyone on here who helped prepare me for what to expect.
i see the other dogs on this thread all seem to be doing well which is great i hope this continues,anyone reading this thread that is about to have a TPLO on there dog need any help/advice feel free to pm.
