[QUOTE=107barney;4205068]It doesn't heal without surgery unless you'd likete her to have arthritis for the rest of her life. I went through this last year with my own dog who was 11 at the time. You might want to read this article.
Yorkie Haven Recescue - Cranial Cruciate Ligament Tear Info[/ tQUOTE]
Daisy has been to the vet, and surgeon ... they did not recommend surgery at this time. They feel it is a partial tear. She was walking on it within 2 days after she did it. I have read many articles on this and there is a difference between a partial tear and a complete tear. At least this is what the surgeon told me. I am just trying to keep her down and was looking for suggestions on how to do that. As soon as she starts to do good she does something and starts limping again. I am taking her back to the vet tomorrow.
