Sorry your baby had to go thru the surgery. Hot Rod had lp surgery and still skips. I've been told by 3 different vets (surgeon included) that his knee is great. I was also told that it could be phantom pain. One vet told me that it could be up to a year before they are really healed after a surgery.
However, having said all of that, my one vet is wanting me to try a pain killer for Hot Rod to see if he is in fact having a leg/hip issue. Its been a couple of years since surgery and he will skp every once in a while and walk with his leg up. There is not rhyme or reason. And when he wants to run, look out, off he goes. lol
But since your babies surgery was not long ago, I would give it some more time. We had to crate rest for 6 weeks, I'm surprised that you didn't have to. |
