My wonderful 8 year old German shepherd/ lab just had surgery on her back leg.  She blow out her knee and was basically walking with bone on bone . She also had to had another tear discovered during surgery that they had to fix. She hasn't been able to go on long walks or run around like she loves to do or play with her friends at the dog park.  And will probably be 3 or more months before she can. She could also benefit from lazor therapy but that is an extra cost on top a very expensive surgery and the medicine needed to heal . She is a big part of our family and just want her to be able to enjoy the things she used to . We are having to go into debt and big payment plans wit the vet to cover the surger.y.  My   husband just started a new job and I am looking for work as we just moved to a new city . Thank u for you for hearing my story.
