I'm just speaking from my medical knowledge(i'm a rn not a vet) but after any surgery where you have to immoblized for a long amount of time the tendons will shrink a little (should have seen me after my knee surgery). the therapy is to help restrech the tendons and ligaments that have shrunk up. Gracie is prob favoring that leg because the tendons and ligaments are still tight. Bet she does a complete 180 after therapy
