ACL tear - 18 month old mutt

Yep....Murph has been limping around. To the vet today. Both ACL's are gone. He's about 70 lbs and in good shape but vet says take him down below 60 lbs before thinking about surgery.

Anyone deal with this? Dare I ask about surgery cost? Would probably have it done at the Univ of GA Vet School...the best around. Go figure...the $50 rescue dog is the one that's going to rack up the vet bills. The $1600 Mastiff has been bullet proof....so far. Appreciate thoughts.
