Well, Ozzie had his follow up appointment with the vet this morning and it looks like he's having surgery. The vet is sure it's a torn ACL so we have a couple of surgery options. Option one is going to cost about $2400.00 because they need to bring in a specialist while option two is only about $850.00.
The vet says neither surgery will make him 100% and rehabilitation time is about 2-3 months but we need to do what's best for him regardless of whether or not it breaks us. Looks like Ace and I have some serious choices to make.
I will keep you updated.
Have a fantastic Saturday friends.
Tah dah, I can comment!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the kiddo needing surgery. =(
Yay! I'm glad I got that fixed. Thanks for letting me know or else I would have had no clue.
ReplyDeleteThank you we are sorry too. Poor little guy (ok big guy, he weighed 100 pounds at the vet yesterday wow!) It's gonna be hard to come up with the money but he's our baby and its so worth it. We just want him to be comfortable again and out of pain. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the 2-3 months of rehabilitation after the surgery because he can't hang out with his sister and that's going to break both of their little hearts. It's probably gonna break mine to watch them be so upset. We will get through it though and when it's all said and done he will be like a new Ozzie. Yay!
