Default Short Update on one of my puppy

Hi guys, it's been awhile. Just wanted to update you on my puppy who was found to have luxating patella on one of her knee as soon as we got her..

We decided to take her to the well known orthopedic specialist near where I live... and she was found to have LP on both of her legs, grade 3... I was crushed. I felt so bad for her..
Surgery came out to be 3.1k for both knees, including extraction of puppy teeth... I thought might as well since she's under anesthesia anyways.

It really sucks since she's only 7 months old, and she has grade 3 LP already... I was crushed when I found out that she had on only one of her leg just when I got her 2 months ago, but finding out that she actually had it on both leg just made things worse...

It's been less than a week and she seems to be healing well already and her incision area looks clean! The doc really did good work on her. I'm so happy.

I do feel that she's going to be crated and is movement restricted for 3 months... and that she can't play with her new brother.. but I'm trying to think positive result out of this surgery..

If you have gotten your puppy on lP surgery or.. knew someone who did, could you guys give me some kind of advice on what I should watch out for.. or any kind of advice you guys could think of?

Oh also, my vet is doing this patient of the week thing
If you guys have time, could you go to Azzore.com and vote for Nami please?

Thank you in advance!
