There was some lysis at the one screw but nothing that alarmed him. He said that can happen with just a bit of movement which also can happen. There is no sign of infection..no drainage track...no fever. The limping could be due to different things. Could be the movement of the screw .. also could be due to the fact that she does have some arthritis in that knee.

So....he will xray again in two months unless she gets worse in the meantime. I have a feeling all will be fine!

He told me that she does not need the implant and that he would remove it if I chose to..uhhh no thanks. Not into putting a pup through unecessary surgery...and not putting my wallet through it either. He added that he would not either if it were his pup.

After all that worry...thank goodness is all I can say!
