OK here is a short video of Veronica walking yesterday (11/11). She had her surgery 11/8 and came home 11/9; so I am calling this the 3rd day.

For you guys with experience with the procedure...feedback please?

I was feeling pretty comfortable because I was told that some dogs don't even put the leg down until sutures are out or longer; then I saw a video on youtube w/ a dog at 3 days that had the same procedure and this dog seemed much farther along. I know every case in unique but I guess I am hoping for reassurance that we are in the ball park:

every dog will be different. most will depend on genetics of connective tissue. some on the pre-injury activity levels of the dog. and some on nutrition.
also the how badly the lig was torn.
she will be sore for at least a week. so she might appear normal one minute. then gimp the next.
slower is better.

she is looking great I think. Poor girl, hope she heels well!

Thanks guys!

I know I have to stop playing the comparison game; I'l just make myself crazy (ier than usual).
