Not sure if I should post this here or in health. Callie is limping some again but its not all the time. If she takes off to run or runs a little around the house where I have everything blocked off so she can't jump she dosent limp. When she pulls on the leash which she only does with my mom she dosent limp. Is she trying to protect it or is it hurting? What do you think? We go to the orthopedic surgeon on Thursday and I was hoping he was gonna clear her for normal activity and to see Sammy but now I am worrying like crazy again. I also noticed her left leg that has not had surgery is occasionally shaking when she is standing could the extra work she is putting on it cause the ACL to tear quicker? I know the ACL is more then likely going to tear and need surgery on the left leg but she is so depressed I don't think she could go right back in for surgery and 2 more months in the pen with out some kind of brake to be herself and run inbetween I am so worried about Thursday I am getting stress hives. Can any one help ease my worrys?
