Yeah, it's just we've barely used it and when donations came in, PayPal went "wtf over there", so we'll just need to verify them in a couple days. No problem on ya'lls part!

Thank you! She's been very good about it despite being in pain.

Thank you! I hope the surgery goes well, but so far they seem to think she's a good candidate for it. She might never been the same, but hopefully it'll be better than it is now.

If it's a torn acl he may be fine without surgery. My dog tore hers over 2 years ago. My vet's exact words were that it isn't so much painful as weird feeling to them because the ligament that holds the joint together isn't doing it's job anymore. She never had surgery and she is back to 100%, she doesn't even limp a tiny bit and she is a large breed. Just something to think about if it is the acl you are referring to. Maybe get a second opinion.

It is a torn ALC. I think we're going to do the surgery, but I'm not sure what she'll be like after-either option seems to come with the chance of lessened mobility. I've heard stories like yours, and I've heard of people who had to put their dogs to sleep because they weren't functioning. So...I think I'll do the surgery.

(And anyway, now I'm nervous that she'll injure herself worse somehow-like snap the other one. She was playful last night and I was like "stop bouncing!".)

And thanks for telling me your story.
