Hi Fans of Moxie :>
The surgeon called today to say that Moxie went through the surgery
"perfectly" and is resting well. He did find that her cruciate ligament
had indeed fully ruptured, but luckily her meniscus (a kind of padding
cushioning the knee bones) had remained undamaged. He said I could pick
her up Thursday morning 10am.
A relief!
Now for a couple of weeks of round-the-clock meds and back to that silly
collar. But I'm guessing the time will go fairly quickly, since we both
know the routine now. And this time, she will NOT get to sneak an early
jump onto the couch or run down the stairs -- I'm on to her!!
Three cheers, once again, to Aspen Meadow Veterinary clinic here in Longmont. They are just excellent at what they do.
I'll post various updates here, as we move through the next few weeks.
Thank you so much for your many messages of good wishes for her surgery and recovery.
Christina (& Moxie the Bionic Dog)
