Hope everything goes well. Please keep us updated.

Just a quick update. Lexi's surgery went well and the vet is very pleased with the outcome. She will have to stay overnight and is well cared for and comfortable.
I decided to have the other leg done in 3 weeks time rather than having both done at this time. I thought having both done now would be too hard on her, since she's female and has to squat when going potty.
Then after all that, she goes in to be spayed. :bigcry:
There's no way I could think of breeding with her now. I was told that she was so little she would have to have a c-section and I can't put her through that.
Thank you for your well wishes.

Happy to hear that the surgery went well and hope that the other two will go just as well

I am glad to hear that her surgery went well. I hope all her other surgeries are also a success!

I am glad the outcome was good and positive and am sure the next op will be fine too. Thanks for letting us know.

Glad to hear that Lexi is on the mend Toks...did she hurt both legs?

No, Sue, she didn't hurt the left leg. I guess one good thing that came of this accident is that they found this tendon problem that she has in both legs. It would have gone unnoticed until she was much older. The years of stress on the knee joints would eventually cause arthritis and by then there would be very little that could be done for her. Some breeds are more prone to this problem than others, poodles being one of them.
She'll be more comfortable and a lot happier tomorrow after she has her cast removed.

Wow, then this really was a blessing in disguise as the pain from the arthritis would've probably been alot worse, shame. Well I'm glad poor Lexi is on the mend.

shame. How is your puppy doing now? Has the VET been able to see her at all??
