Dexter
*Enjoy this video update from Dexters wonderful mom!*
Dexter, the husky, recently had a TTA (Tibial Tuberosity Advancement) surgery!
Before the surgery, Dexter was having a lot of trouble with his leg and putting down proper pressure and stability, but now he's walking so much better and actually using the leg again as shown!
It will be a long process until he’s back to 100% but progress like this is incredible to see in such a short amount of time.
For all the pet parents out there, it's so important to keep an eye on our furry friends, and notice any changes in their mobility.
TTA is a surgical procedure that helps stabilize the knee joint, especially in cases of cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) injuries. If your dog is limping or showing signs of discomfort, getting a professional diagnosis and considering TTA could make a world of difference for their quality of life.
We can’t wait to see you at your next visit Dexter! 🐾
Shadow
Some of you may remember this pretty girl!
———————
This is Shadow! She came to us as a referral from Blue Pearl for an amputation of her shattered back left leg, we are not sure what happened to this sweet girl, but she was a trooper through it all.
Dr. Lohani was hopeful that he could save Shadows leg and that she would have full mobility of her leg once she recovers, and to everyone’s surprise she was trying to run around and be her joyful self right out of surgery!
Dad says Shadow is now full speed ahead and she’s back to her normal personality, like nothing happened, which is what we love to see!

We are so happy to see this girl just as happy and loving ever! As always, we are wishing her a wonderful recovery until we see her again at her next follow up! 🖤 🐾
Shadow
Shadow came to us as a referral from Blue Pearl with concerns of her left leg needing to be amputated after a pretty bad break. Dr. Lohani was hopeful he could save her leg with surgery, repairing the bone, and she would have full use in a couple of weeks!
Well, Shadow had different plans! She is up and using her leg not even two hours after surgery and is starting to put full pressure down. She is already back to her loving and energetic self that her family knows and loves.
Good luck Shadow, we hope you and your dad have a wonderful recovery! ❤️🐾

Sally Cayo!

Dr. Lohani got to work and diagnosed her with a Luxating Patella (kneecap).
As always, Dr. Lohani did an amazing job and she is now pain free and walking amazing!
Go Sally! 🐾❤️
Nala is recovering so great with her surgery! 🐾
She’s starting to put pressure on the leg that Dr. Lohani repaired, and she’s even feeling well enough to try and run around.
We love this sweet girl, and we’re so happy to see progress in her long recovery. ❤️🐕
This is Gigi! 🐕
Gigi jumped off of her moms couch which resulted in her coming to us for X-rays, from there Dr. Lohani diagnosed her with a broken hip.
From there, we scheduled a surgery to repair her broken hip by a FHO, or femoral head ostectomy.
Three months later, her pawsome 🐾 mom brought her in for a recheck so we could see how she was recovering, and as you can see, she’s using her leg and is healing perfectly!
We love you Gigi, and we are so glad to see you feeling so much better! ❤️
