【リハビリプール2回目】他の子と比べない🐾その子だけの成長が必ずあると愛犬の泳ぎを通して実感できました

Golden Retriever Sakura 🇯🇵🌸 2 years old She's called Saku, Saku-chan, or Sakura🌸☺️ A family of three: two owners in their 40s and 50s and their dog 🐕❤️ We live in Tokyo✨ 【Contact】 [email protected] ☘️Background of the story☘️ Less than two months of boarding training☺️ After returning home from training Just when we thought we'd be together from now on✨ Unnatural leg shape Later, emergency night visit ⭐️A passionate doctor's hospital This dog will be unable to walk by the age of 8 We were told she would definitely experience severe pain😭 Diagnosis of hip dysplasia and severe bilateral patellar luxation Bilateral surgery March: Right side surgery May: Bilateral surgery (second surgery on the right leg) The pins were said to pose a risk of osteosarcoma⚠️ But they couldn't be removed💦 Even after surgery, she was reluctant to go for walks Continuing to walk on her tiptoes and with a creaking gait I went for a second opinion after my last follow-up appointment, which made me worried. ⭐️ Second opinion at an orthopedic specialist clinic CT scan under anesthesia Result: Grade 4 right medial patellar luxation due to femoral deformity Arthritis developed During surgery, all cartilage that should not have been removed was removed from the right patella. Angle problem occurred... It was discovered that the pin was causing irritation 😨 August: Third surgery on the right leg 5-hour surgery Afterward, the left leg immediately dislocated again Grade 3 😢 December: Second surgery on the left leg Total of 5 surgeries Not everything went as planned, but I am filled with gratitude 😌 4 and a half months post-surgery: Rehabilitation clinic Currently undergoing outpatient treatment Even after surgery, she will need to live with arthritis 😣 Her legs may be impaired, but it's proof of her hard work ☺️ She can't fold her legs, but I hope she can walk and run without pain ☺️ 🌸Today's story🐕🌸 7.5 months post-surgery She went to the rehabilitation pool for the second time in her life. Swimming in the pool naturally makes her stiff hind legs move much more freely ☺️ The other dogs were jumping from high places and seemed to be having a lot of fun. As for Saku-chan, she can't do that, but she has made progress in her own way, and we were all happy ☺️ As another Golden Retriever's mom said, my dog ​​is my dog, and other dogs are other dogs. I was reminded again that I should focus on what my dog ​​can do without comparing her to other dogs 🥹 I will continue rehabilitation without pushing her too hard, so that she can walk as happily as possible with the legs she has now! Thank you so much for your comments and advice! 🐕🌸🩷 I'm so happy! ☺️ #dog #goldenretreaver #patella #goldenretreiver #petdog #largedog #lumberdogfield #dogpool
