    my 4 year old g.s.d. had successful tightrope surgery 90 days ago. complicating matters, both menisci were torn and removed during procedure. still does a little toe dragging when tired but is 90% back. we will likely cut back on the agility trials and flippy-flopper jumping in favor of more linear and less stressful excercise. dr paul henrich, tranquility vet clinic in sussex county, nj did an amazing job. apparently, he has modified or improved dr jamie cook’s procedure to allow the operation to be successful on larger, athletic dogs who may previously have only been candidates for t.p.l.o. “why would you break a bone to repair a ligament ?”

    I have a 17mos old Boerboel Mastiff that has a torn ccl and have been researching possible alternatives to TPLO – looking for ortho surgeons in the Seattle area that have used this procedure – any ideas?
