Peggy how is your baby doing? Do you have him on a good joint medicine? My 7 lb chihuahua was diagnosed with an acl tear on 9/20 just 5 weeks ago my vet said to try the
conservative management and if she showed any improvement in a few weeks then she will probably do OK as long as there's no jumping running or doing stairs. I still only take her out on a leash for short potty breaks. I think it takes several months to build up the scar tissue that Will finally stabilize the joint. She's walking on the leg but still not putting all the weight on it yet. But she is putting some weight on it now, which she wasn't doing at first.
