Or I would have to kill her
Lovely walk Saturday morning, Willow off lead, having a run, all is good with the world, walked home fine. By Saturday evening she's as lame as a lame thing can possibly be. Problem is, it's her supposed 'good' leg that's gone, which is a real worry because it carries the burden for the really 'bad' leg.
Both patellas luxate - left knee was operated on, with little success. It still pops out from time to time but her right knee was relatively stable, until Saturday!!
I'm only guessing it's her knee of course, my wonderful vet will confirm tonight. I don't like to mess because I've no idea what I'm feeling for. She didn't warrant an emergency callout as she was weight bearing by yesterday, albeit tentatively. For a young dog, she's very fragile!
If she needs surgery again, I may well have to kill her
Even took a video Saturday morning but this was just to show how filthy she was. I've looked and looked but can't see anything lame about her, other than her slightly normal 'wonky' gait due to the lack of proper foot on the back left. It's her back right that's gone, if anyone can see anything I can't
Blimey, that was hard work. Managed to get the video in one of the comments
