Our dog torn her ACL while on a walk yesterday. She had a bit of a limp from a swollen ankle on the other foot and going up hill she must have twisted it.
Spend two hours at the animal hospital and they gave us the options, not like human ACL tears.... I'm worried the other ankle my have cancer hopefully the xray will tell them.
Issue (other than her being lame) is she's heavy 85 lbs so I have to carry down our deck so she can go to the bathroom. The other news the vet had was around 50% of dogs will tear their other ACL within a year of the operation.
Sad to see our animal friends hurt...
