It would be great if you live stream one where you do a TPLO and a patella luxation correction at the same time!

Will keep an eye out for the next case. I manage these differently in smaller dogs

Quick question, i know is a big dog, but TPLO and TCT isnt a bit much at the same time considerning that TPLO is a pretty invasive intervention?

so about 2 weeks ago my dog fell side ways off the couch and landed weird. his back left leg was instantly lame. we took them to doc they said just let it rest a week. been over a week now and every day after he gets the tiniest bit excited, his leg goes lame again. he doesn't cry but he stops and just holds his leg up. took him to a vet and they said it's patellar luxation. but i'm confused like will this ever go away? like the the 3 days at least once a day he has to stop and his leg goes lame. the vet said he was only grade 1, but it just seems odd for this to be happening every day.
