That does sound rough, do hope Callie makes a full recovery soon. That's also longer than we'd realized for recovery.

I need to know more about the op. Will talk more to the vet. She talked of scraping a deeper 'groove',(those were not her exact words, can't remember exactly what she said) for the bone to sit in. Nothing was said of pins, but we didn't ask many questions. Will think of more for when we go.

Anyone willing/wanting to give any tips, on what we should be asking, please add the advice.
