In which Molly Poodle has her surgery!
The ligaments were completely torn, and she has some additional instability in her hip joints, so the surgery was longer and more complicated than they originally thought. She'll most likely need more surgeries later in her life, but if we can keep the range of motion exercises consistent (swimming lessons!) she may not develop arthritis in those joints.
I just got back from visiting her at the Hospital...
she's on IV pain meds and sleeping on hot water bottles and wrapped in towels...
sigh.
Such a sweet doggie!
I'm getting the guest room ready for the Boybird to be here for Thanksgiving!
