the doctor called to tell me he had woken up and was back sleeping. the surgery went well. The doctor also told me something surprising. He said Sammy's knees were not only luxating but were deformed
When I asked..he said "Yeah it was more than just a regular sliding knee cap (s), there were other birth deformations, not
really deformed, but there was something definetely not right. But we worked on it and with the right care, he should be back to normal after healing."
Ok, so of course I'm shocked. I can't believe my baby's bones are deformed. Makes me think what else is wrong that I don't know about.
Some of you may remember that when I bought Sammy, I did not get him from a breeder, but rather from (what I later found out thanks to you all) a broker who of course I was convinced and instantly fell in love with him. I paid $500. and he guaranteed him to be healthy for a year. Sammy is now 16 months old and I do not plan on asking the man for anything. But I do feel like letting him know something is wrong with his dogs.
What would you do? Leave it alone, or call and say something (no complain) but sincerely tell him, look this is what's happenieng with you dogs! I wouldhate for another family to buy from him (He has lots- like 15 when I bought sammy) and experience the same thing I am going through.
Also, idon't wanna open another post, so I would like to know from those of you whose dogs have had surgery for LP what was the healing process like. I know its different for everyone, but were your dos lethargic, did they want to play and run, were they like zombies the few days after. Please any info would be great.
thanks
