We decided to adopt Evie about a month ago after fostering and knowing that she would probably need another hernia operation with a specialist after the first couldn't be repaired by a regular vet.
She had this done three weeks ago now, got an infection which has been updated, but she is left with a limp. Her hind leg on the side she has the op kind of collapses with each step?
On Tuesday at her review appointment the vet suggested it might be nerve damage and is going to review her again in two weeks time. It doesn't seem to be improving, although she has no problem bombing around the house like a lunatic!!! She can't jump as high as she used to before. has anyone had experience of this - how long could it take to improve, and if it doesn't would they leave the leg or amputate it?
I know I should of asked at the time, but you don't start thinking of these things til afterwards - well I don't anyway!
I wish I could post a video on here to show you...
