She isn't allowed any walks until after October 11th, when her stitches come out. She hasn't shown any interest in play yet, but out of our 3 dogs, she has always been the least interested in play anyway. Before the amputation, she spent 80% of her time lounging in her favorite napping spots. After the amputation, it's more like 90%. She can still do everything she could before--go up and down stairs, get on the furniture, run to the door when strangers come--she just does it a bit more slowly.

There have been a couple of minor personality changes. The first is that she's more vocal--more grunts, and huffs, and "talking". She's expressing the same opinions she always did, just more loudly/more melodramatic.

The second is that she's a little less patient. Our rambunctious border collie has always annoyed her. Before amputation, when he was being too energetic, she'd just roll over and ignore him. After amputation, she's quicker to scold him with a growl.
