Two days ago, I got a call from our vet about one of our black lab puppies. The news was not great. Octavia has carpus valgus, a condition in which the bones in her feet do not grow properly.
The good news is the condition is treatable. The bad news is the treatment is surgery. The worse news is that both legs need to have surgery simultaneously.... and that there will be a second, follow up to remove the pins put in her legs in an effort to realign her bones.
SURGERY IS NOW SCHEDULED FOR JANUARY 11th!!
