Finally! Some good news!!!
Oh boy! This past 2 years have been a rollercoaster with my boys' knees.
Snatch (7) hurt himself April 2009 - after being misdiagnosed, he had TPLO Jan 2010. He was back 100% around August 2010  Oxy (3) hurt himself Feb 2010 - TPLO Sept 2010 - Infection November 2010 and January 2011 - Removal of the plates February 2011... Imagine 2 boxers, crated, no running, no walk, NO FUN! they are like ticking BOMB!  ***** Today, was the last recheck for Oxford. First of all, I want to thank Grapevine TX Surgical Center team. They are truly the BEST!  I saw Dr Bertrand, the surgeon who did Snatch and Oxy's TPLO's. 1)Oxy is ready for water therapy now 2)The crate can go out in 4 weeks (yay!!!!) 3)If he does well at therapy, he can go play off leash in 6 weeks with no worry! 4)Agility ok in 6 months I can't wait to have my happy, playing, burning, psycho dogs back!!! It has been hard to keep them occupied and happy with all that stink!  I am in such a good mood today! I wish I didn't have to go to work!

Goodness! I feel terrible for complaining about trying to keep Raine calm for the first week after her spay! There is NO WAY I would have been able to accomplish what you have with both of yours for so long.
Kudo's to you! That is just awesome.

 It is very hard! And sad too. 2 years they have not been able to be regular dogs.Oh and the worse, I cannot imagine them running like psychos again, like they used too.. I am totally terrified of them hurting their other leg...  But they therapist told me Oxy looks great and she wants to see him twice a week for 2 weeks until he's back to running again.. he is so happy.. and so exhausted after his session!

That is some long overdue good news! I bet they'll love being "normal dogs" again in 6 weeks.
 You deserve some sort of medal for keeping 2 boxers quiet for 2 years! I can barely manage a week with 1 boxer.
