Thanks for the updates, it's nice to get some closure! Hopefully with the extra care and advice/education the dog will be in a better situation and still with the OP.

We spent quite a bit more on the LP surgeries for our dogs, and there were a lot of followup visits with the surgeon as well as to the physical therapist. I don't think LP is covered by most insurance plans, but it might worth getting some insurance to avoid unexpected future situations where the cost of needed health care is prohibitively expensive.
