tplo - day 4

yesterday was day 4 after river's knee surgery. we took her for a rehab consultation at the veterinary holistic and rehabilitation center (http://vetrehab.org/) with dr. danoff. she seemed impressed with river's progress, especially because she puts weight on her bad leg. she showed us how to do some exercises with her to get flexibility back in her knee. she also gave river a shot of what is basically liquid glucosamine.
we are still walking with the towel sling, especially up and down the steps (there is 1 step in our condo, 2 steps to get outside). this morning she seemed a little sore, but that's probably from all of the excitement yesterday. it snowed about an inch last night, and this morning she didn't want to put her foot down in the snow.
river gets her staples out next tuesday.
