A couple pics of Nikki 4 days after her femoral head ostectomy surgery. It has been tough going as she needs to be in her kennel at all times except when she eats ( as she will not eat unless we sit with her ) and to go out to the bathroom . She has been a real trooper, though it is going to be a long few months , for her and us . I miss my little shadow ,especially riding shot gun .
She has about a ten inch incision held by staples which should hopefully come out in 2 weeks, then she gets to go for very short walks as long as she does not try to use her left leg . In two months we get to start physical therapy and I need to rig up something to do hydrotherapy with her 3 times a week.
If anyone has an idea for a therapy tub I would greatly appreciate it. Our bath tub even though it is a jacuzzi tub is not deep enough for her to swim . I have been looking into renting something but have come up empty and there are no facilities near us that offer hydrotherapy for dogs.
