We will be having Frankie have some surgery on his right hind leg. He will have his knee cap put back into place as well as having the two bones realigned as they are twisted right now.
His recovery will take about 8 weeks. He will have a soft padding put on his leg similar to a cast but not. He will have that on for two weeks and taken off and the rehab will begin.
This was a difficult decision to make and one that Sam did not want to have to make. He is already nervous about it. He is very concerned that he won't be the same afterwards. I feel in my heart that he will be OK and better than ever. Frankie needs to loose some weight before surgery. I am trying not to give him anything other than his dinner but Sam just can't stop himself. They are after all buddies!
I really do want everything to work out as this would be devastating to Sam if something should happen to him.
