Post surgery

Morgan is doing pretty good considering.... She has about a 6-7" incision on the right back thigh. (Pictures to come.) I thought it was a simple procedure.... not so. She had a femoral head ostectomy, which is the removal of the ball portion of the hip joint.... quite invasive! Feel free to read about it. With this surgery a 'false joint' forms and once healed it will be less painful for her than than leaving the femoral head rubbing against the pelvic bone. She has to do leg exercises every day and be iced 2-3x a day for the next couple of weeks. She'll put a little weight on her leg but she mostly gets around on her one back leg for right now. Hopefully with her physical therapy and a smooth recovery she'll be able to be hunting again next year. She's a tough girl and has turned into Chuck's dog right now.
