Rosen doing very well!

Rosen had her 1 month post TPLO operation checkup. She is ambulatory with no lameness. Her stifle is stable on palpation. Her implants look stable with no signs of infection.

 

Rosen update

Rosen had her sutures removed and the surgery site looks OK. She has been a trooper during her recovery, especially living in cone purgatory in her x-pen area and having to watch her canine bother Harry able to move about freely. It still takes 2 people to take her outside with a sling, but bathroom activity should start improving.

 

Meet Rosen

This sweet 3-4 year old was an owner surrender. She wanted to play with dogs, cats and people, but we noticed that she would not place weight on her left rear leg. Two orthopedic assessments confirmed she has Degenerate Cruciate Disease and Bilateral Hip Dysplasia. We decided to provide her with a TPLO to address the left knee and minimize the stress on her other rear leg and hips. The surgeon found a complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament and a tear in her medial meniscus. She was a great patient and is now resting with her foster family.
