Nipper's Knee Surgery



Nipper is recovering very nicely from his knee surgery
(2 weeks post-op).



Although it takes a bit longer to get there, Nipper can still make it under his favorite bush on a warm spring day (3 weeks post-op).



Nipper's knee may look healed, it will still take a few more weeks for everything inside to finish getting strong enough for him to play like he used to. To help his knee get stronger Nipper has started taking walks again (but no playing Frizbee yet.)
(5 weeks post-op).





It is very frightening to learn that your dog needs surgery.
There is a wealth of information available on the Internet
to help you make the best decisions.
Some sites that helped me to learn about Nipper's knee surgery are:.
