I thought the exam would not need any follow-up, because she seems to be doing SO much better today, but .....
The surgery is set for next Tuesday.
Her acl had ruptured, and the joint is all out of whack. It doesn't stop her from going all the time, though. Oh, the spirit of a terrier! At one point, Dr Beale opened the door of the exam room and she bolted. He chased her a good way, around a couple of corners, before he was able to catch up to the little stinker.
He said it was a fresh injury, because there was no arthritis. so that's good. I can't imagine a three year old dog saddled with arthritis for the rest of her life.
And dh hasn't even asked how much it's going to cost. Love him!
