My dog also had a torn acl along with a 3/4 LP on the same leg. The other leg was a 3 LP. My ortho vet suggested fixing both legs at the same time. He gave me the option of only doing the worst one -- but said that most likely within 6 months I would probably have to do the other one. I opted to do both at the same time and now -- a year and a half later -- we have no problems at all. Good luck with the second surgery. At least you know what you're in for with this one!!!
