No More Squirrel Chasing For Maggie

[lizbud]

My baby girl Maggie has torn her ACL on her left hind leg. A trip to
the Vets this morning confirmed my fears. It happened yesterday morning
on her regular morning outee. I thought she might have sprained something
as she came limping back to the back door. Rest & pain meds didn't seem
to help her much at all & she was crying a lot by evening time.

The Vet said she thinks it might be a tear and not a rupture & with total
rest & some meds she could recover enough to start small walks on leash.
I have a feeling this is going to be a long summer of confinment & rest for
my sweetie. Can you please spare some good vibes & prayers that Maggie
heals up without surgery? The Vet thinks it is possible & I want so to believe
that.

BIG prayers for Maggie and Mom too

Oh no!! That is my worst fear as well. I am so sorry.
I will be hoping that it will heal up and she will not have to have surgery.

Awww, prayers on the way for pretty Maggie.

[Lilith Cherry]

Oh poor Maggie! Heal fast !

I can hear RB Cody saying *Oy Vey*! He went through torn ACLs on each knee. It's my worse fear with Mz Logan too (that and Bloat) Blame it on the critters invading our babies's property!

Lots of prayers, of course, Liz, for you and darling Maggie. I guess it's good that it's 100 degrees and too hot to run around.
Now listen up, Maggie...stay cool and calm 'cause mom is really worried and so are we. I hope Maggie doesn't need surgery.

I hope and pray Maggie heals without surgery. Take it easy, baby girl.

I know of a few bichons who've been able to heal with rest. Prayers this works for Maggie!

[Randi]

Oh poor Maggie, that must hurt. I hope she heals up without surgery. Fister and I send lots of positive thoughts.

Poor Maggie. Prayers and good vibes going out to her, that she will heal without having to have surgery. {{{Hugs}}} to you too Liz.

[lizbud]

Aww, thank you all for the good wishes for Maggie (&me) She is being
a good patient so far & the pain med seems to be keeping her comfortable
for the most part. I've worked out a routine of going out & back in for outees
by using the easiest steps to go up & down into the house. I now use the
front porch steps with Maggie (easier for her), so she has met my porch
kitties face to face now. So far so good with both her & them.

Pawsitive thoughts and prayers for Maggie. I hope she doesn't have to have surgery. I've been there, done that with my RB Lacey.

Poor girl! Lady tweaks her shoulder occasionally and getting her to rest and let it heal isn't fun.

Hopefully she's a better patient than miss impatient.
