So after Heidi's pins were removed, did she suffer any setbacks from the pin removal [edit: I just reread your other post, and you said there were no setbacks], and how many weeks after her initial surgery were the pins removed? Thanks for any help and advice, because I'm a very worried Yorkie daddy.
She had no problems at all after! Her entire knee was basically reconstructed...her mom contacts me often and she is just fine! Her surgery was on July 14 and the pins were found to have moved on Oct. 19 .. so it was a few months.

I know someone on YT who just had this done. Let me ask her if she respond here.
