my yorkie needs both his rear legs done and i am assuming that they would do one at a time. i would love to know what to expect after surgery. they said it could be 8 week recovery which seems long to me. he has very long coat and i was wondering how big incision is and did yours have to stay over nite. i really do not want to leave him but they told me he would be in intensive care unit. i would love to hear anything you have to say about this subject.
