Winston has been in pain off and on since my last blog. I tried taking him off the pain pills but every time I do and then walk him farther than around the block (about a 15 minute walk), he ends up on three legs again. It's a little depressing.
Today we went to AMVS to get his leg checked. Without doing surgery it's hard to say exactly what is going on, but they suspect that he's torn his meniscus. We're to continue with pain pills and continue resting him while we consider our options. The best option for Winston is to remove the TPLO plate, and check/repair the meniscus. It sounds like the recovery from surgery isn't as bad as having the TPLO done in the first place.
We're expecting a tax refund this year. I guess it's going to Winston.
