Just a sad day note. I just took Mickey to the vet and found out that he has a torn ACL in his left rear leg. Boy do I wish it had been a broken leg after all Our vet basically said that this is unfortunately common in large bread dogs. He can do surgery that may or may not work (recommended 40lbs or less not the 125lbs that Mickey weighs). Or we can take him to Medford and have his knee rebuilt (which also may not work). For now I bought some glucosamine? and some other supplements as well as some pain killers...at $7.25 each. He said there isn't a huge hurry it isn't life threatening, but if he limps too long his other leg may blow out also . I never thought I'd even consider spending $2,500.00 to rebuild my dogs leg, nor $1,200.00 for a maybe fix. Boy was this a very unpleasant vet visit
