|  Hot Rod's Home!!! [B]Warning-graphic picture[/B] He's home, he's home! Yay!  We got to pick him up at 11:00 am and the doctor came in and spoke with us and answered all of our questions. He re-emphasized keeping him still for 6 weeks. The surgery went very well and smoothly. He made the groove in his knee cap deeper and tightened the ligaments. The dr believes that with proper aftercare he should be good to go with no more issues. He also believes that the leg will be okay as it is and that he might still walk with the leg out but eventually it will be fine. He goes back in 2 weeks to have his stitches taken out. When the tech brought him in he jumped right into my arms but wouldn't kiss me at all  . He gave daddy kisses though  lol.sorry I didn't post earlier but I have holding him for the last couple of hours.  Poor Maggie May, she was soooo excited to see him but he just wanted to be quiet and actually snapped at her. She just left him alone. I tried to get her to lay on the sofa with us but she went to the chair and went to sleep. She is now in between my arms as I am typing. lol.Thank you all again for all of your well wishes and prayers, they meant a lot and got me through this stressful time.  Here are a couple of pictures.

| Yay!! Hot Rod's home! He looks so comfy all snuggled up to mommy. I will pray for a quick recovery! Did the doctor have any recommendations on HOW to keep him still for 6 weeks? BTW, I love your yorkie necklace!

| Welcome home Hot Rod! Mommie must be so happy to have you back. Wow, for 6 weeks...that's a long time, but it's amazing how these little guys heal so quickly. Now (soon) it's a matter of how to keep him from running around everywhere!

| Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member  | Glad to hear he is home with you now and resting. Does he have a fentanyl patch and pain meds? those "should" keep him a little quieter for the next few days (i say should because, well, we all know yorkies lol). As for ways to keep him quiet, we always recommend a crate or x-pen. however if he bounces around in his ex-pen then it is no good. The less movement the better, besides his 3 walks a day to go potty. with little dogs we also recommend doggie carriers if the owners like to have the dog with them all the time and if the dog tolerates them.
