Gizmo's surgery was a success!


Gizmo had his surgery yesterday. The vet said it was a success. He was able to create a new socket for the knee to fit in and once it was in place he could not pop it out. He also said the knee has about 174 degrees of motion out of 180 which is really good.


He didn't sleep well last night and consequently neither did we. He moans and whines a lot. Hopefully he will start to feel better soon.


I took the picture above with my phone but we have some better shots I will post up later.

UPDATE:

We took Giz back to the vet this afternoon because he wouldn't move around at all, wouldn't go to the bathroom, and wouldn't eat. They removed his "cast" to see how he would fair. He went outside, walked around some and went to the bathroom. So they decided to leave it off. There are some more pictures here.
