My dog has torn both CCL's

[kentrpittman]

Hello Everyone

My 7 year old shepherd/husky mix has recently just torn both of his ccls in his hind legs.

I was just wondering if there is anyone out there that has any tips on how to keep him comfortable.

He is on tremdol and dermetax as well as a herbal supplement. He is scheduled for his first TPLO in a week and a half.

Right now we have a mattress setup in our living room floor to keep him comfy while sleeping.

Our main issue is getting him outside to void. We managed to get him to poop last night but he doesn't want to pee (Mostly because we are waiting on a sling and we are using a homemade now that sort of covers his manhood). Whenever we try to put the sling under him to get him outside he crys and growls and then tries to make a run for his crate.

Anyone have any advice?

Thanks
Kent
