They told us it was going to be 2 months! The casts tend to slip and she actually went through 6 casts in 4 weeks. Extremely expensive- especially when 2 of them were emergency room visits. She was slow for the first couple of days, but after she got used to the cast we'd turn our backs and she would have jumped up on something. We ended up giving her puppy valium for the last two weeks just to make sure she slowed down and healed. She only had trouble doing her business the first day because she couldn't figure out how to squat, but after that we kept a waterproof bootie over the leg when she went out and she never made a mess on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358620.post-49400809374590173732009-01-23T17:58:00.000-06:002009-01-23T17:58:00.000-06:00I can sympathize on the cabin fever, and surgery f...I can sympathize on the cabin fever, and surgery fronts.
