Default TPLO Surgery

Buster had TPLO surgery back in April to repair his ACL along with his LP. He had surgery for LP today, same leg. The surgeon was going to remove the plate and pins today during the LP surgery. Once he started doing the surgery he determined the hardware could not be removed, it was too soon.

Has anyone had the TPLO surgery where the hardware was left in for a while? Does this hinder the healing or the way your pup walks? Is your pup 'crippled' in any way? I am in no way second guessing the surgeon. There is a family member giving me a hard time.
