I am glad everything went well. I imagine you both will feel a little more at ease when she does come home. I think they worry about us as much as we worry about them at times.

Glad to hear good news about Amanda. You must be very relieved that it's over. Wishing her a speedy recovery!

It's tibial plateau leveling osteotomy. When a dog ruptures it's cruciate ligament they can level the tibia (leg bone) to remove the need for a cruciate ligament. Check out this link, it explains it better then I can.
