I called the vet today at 2:30pm, and they told me that Noah did just fine.

Dr. Mulch said that Noah's knee was just fine and that nothing needed to be done with it. He also said that his hip was exactly as he had predicted so the procedure was textbook for him. They told me that Noah had just gotten out of surgery only an hour before I had called, so he was still a little groggy. They told me that he was a little cold from the anesthesia and that one of the girls from the front desk were sitting with him and holding him. I was very pleased to hear that my baby was being taken care so well. The vet also told me that they went ahead and pulled Noah's baby teeth at no additional charge since he had adult teeth grown in aleady and they were just going to cause problems. I am so pleased with this vet clinic. The fact that I got to talk directly with the man that performed the surgery, and that he told me Noah was going to be perfectly fine just made my day. I pick him up tomorrow around 2:30pm (central time). I will keep everybody posted on Noah's recovery on a different Thread since this is for emergencies only and I don't think I would consider this to be an emergency any longer. I will down load pictures so you all can see how he is healing, and so everybody can have a good understanding of the process just in case the unfortunate happens to any of you as well. thanks for you prayers and concerns!
