Even here, you are trying to push WoundWear, but at least you made an effort at a personal message. Congratulations on a rare but genuine comment from you. It wouldn't hurt to use your real name either :)John Sealanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02274175002075606971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606077175041733164.post-89162695228079060482013-03-12T13:02:52.381-05:002013-03-12T13:02:52.381-05:00Hey John!

If you are concerned about putting a 12 year old dog through surgery (if she did in fact tear her ACL), have you thought about conservative management? I know it all depends on what news you got at the vet, but maybe a brace would be beneficial at her age; less stressful overall. There's a company called WoundWear that makes a surgery-alternative brace. The brace also can be used as a precautionary measure. Just thought I'd pass along the information! Good luck to you and Dot! Here's their website: http://blog.woundwear.com/<br /><br />PS- Sorry about your health insurance bill and pending roof repair. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606077175041733164.post-53729608895544514852013-03-11T20:43:28.296-05:002013-03-11T20:43:28.296-05:00Dot is probably around 12 or 13 years old.

We are unsure of her exact age, because we rescued her from a shelter and don't know when she was born.John Sealanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02274175002075606971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606077175041733164.post-19527311018862153632013-03-11T19:26:48.371-05:002013-03-11T19:26:48.371-05:00Oh bummer.

She seems ok, but she can't get up without help and tries to bite anyone who helps, so I have to quilt wrap her to lift her. I hope Dot will recover. Remind me how old she is.Sharkbyteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10139935335209860357noreply@blogger.com
