Post-op Day 6

Day 6...Molly is doing well. She continues to get used to the kennel. When we let her out to go outside she is now waiting for us to put on her leash and her sling and she knows to wait for us to lift her hind legs as she goes down the three steps in the front of the house. Immediately when she gets outside she stretches out in the grass and lays down.


The swelling in her legs is decreasing throughout except right over top of her knee. We are noticing her muscles in her hind legs have some atrophy from lack of use....but that will come back I am sure when she is free to walk and run on her own. She does still try to put weight on it...especially because her other leg has a torn cruciate ligament as well and is weak.


We are excited that tomorrow we can check the 1 week block!


Here are some day 6 pictures...
