She could still have a luxating patella. They do repair them when they repair the ligament but sometimes the LP can return. Next time you see your vet, have her check it out. I have a pup who had a TPLO repair done on his cruciate ligament but two LP repairs failed and he still has LP grade 2 which at this point is just going to stay that way. His cruciate is fixed!

My guess is she probably is fine...usually they are. Once in a while a pup can have a really difficult issue with bone structure and it gets in the way of LP repairs.
