I know you hurt as much as she if not more.Dog's heal quicker than we are.15 years ago I hat A Rottweiler that hat to have Hip surgery.And i remember her crying for the first 7day's she was so pitifully.But then it got better every day.I know it is hart to put ice on a chi they hate the cold.The exercise is good for her but also make the swelling worse.I remember that from my Owen shoulder operation i hat pins and a plate in my Arm.They give her some for the Pain ?I wish there was some i could do for you and her.But i will pray for a speedy recovery

We had some highs and lows today. The low having her cry in pain because of the way she moved I think. It hurt me as much as it hurt her i'm sure. The high, she finally had a poopie and she got up on her own and did a little walk around her bed. She has swelling on the right leg, especially the lower leg, although she insists on lying on that side. I made a smaller, more fluid and softer ice pack today in the hopes it would be easier to apply. But I'm finding it very challenging to use. Any suggestions? I picked up a natural cream for her razor burn that smells nice and won't make her sick if she licked it. She seems almost depressed tonight, or else she's sore from moving around earlier. Someone please tell me it will get easier/better? !
