My lil’ buddy had to have (effectively) a doggo knee replacement surgery. We had him in for a consult with the surgeon on Monday and on Tuesday he was going in for a Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) for a torn CCL and bone chip.
Not only did my big lug end up tearing his cranial cruciate ligament, he also apparently partially tore the caudal cruciate ligament, which isn’t super common. So now we’re trying to do recovery mode and it’s a big challenge
Edit: he’s 91lbs (41.6kg) and carrying him outside is just fucking killing my lower back ;x

currently reading The World As We Knew It: Dispatches From a Changing Climate, which should be book #19 for the year. currently 5 books ahead of my pace for the year (35 books), so 40 is definitely looking possible already
Ok and yours?
the website eating a hundred or so posts over the weekend was an unfortunate start to the week but the vibes are definitely good today
