The day after surgery, I opened my back door to let some pups out thinking I would put a leash on this little one who had the surgery...he RAN out the door. I remember standing there in shock! They really do well after this surgery. They don't have the restrictions that they have after other ortho surgeries because there really isn't much to *undo* I suppose.

I think you will be pleasantly surprised...and your baby will soon be out of pain.
