Koko - back from cruciate surgery
Hi everyone, I really am sorry for not getting back to all of you concerning my dog Koko. I don't remember my post number but to refresh your memory I will tell briefly. My dog Koko was limping and we took her to the vet. The vet said she needed surgery she tore her anterior cruciate ligament. I didn't know anything about this kind of injury and the people on this forum were a great help. Koko has had her surgery, which took 3 hours or so, and is recovering great at home. There are different degrees of this type of injury and thank God my dog didn't damage it to bad. She is a real trooper and is already wanting to play ball. It looks like another month of exercise and love and she will be fine.
To be very honest after I wrote all about my dog and her injury and asked for everyones help I then viewed all the other posts with people that had much more problems than me. I felt very selfish. I hope evryone that has a sick animal will be comforted by the fact that a sick animal is very much aware that you love them, and that in itself is the best first aid treatment you can give. Just Love. Paul
