Hi Jennifer -

That sounds terrible, have you taken your dog back to the vet? I’d definitely go and get a professional opinion before doing anything else.

I would be inclined to think that it didn’t rupture again, however, your veterinarian would know with far greater certainty than I ever could.

Best of luck to your family and your dog with the recovery.

Hi, my name is Jennifer, i have a 6 year old golden retriever who has just had TPLO surgery, he was doing really good and started using his leg again, then one morning stopped using it again, he only uses 3 of his legs we are wondering after spending $3000 could he have ruptured his ligament again??? We have no idea how, or could it be from using it so early maybe it is the arthritis. We are very concerned and worried we do not have another $3000 to spend only for something to happen again???
