Hello and welcome. I'm so sorry to hear about your pup. What's the little gal's name?

I'm not sure when our fairy vet mother Dr. Wiltzius will see this, but until then, I'm wondering, how's she getting along now?

We do see dogs here whose leg didn't heal from surgery, requiring amputation later on. So that's not too unusual. But if she's getting around OK and she's already had the surgery, then I would take things day by day if it were our pup. You can try to help monitor her activity to a point, but I know what you mean about her natural behavior, it's tough. There's definitely a fine line between allowing our pets to be themselves and watching over them so they don't hurt themselves. You're doing a great job being so conscientious about her health!
