Edward had been limping on his left hind leg slightly after frapping one night with Gem out in our yard about 3weeks ago. He wasn't complaining about it but couldn't jump up on our bed anymore and had a toe point whenever he was at standstill eating. Thinking it would get better we were just taking it extremely easy with him, not walking as much etc. He still was chasing squirrels, birds and Gem etc. In fact hard to believe anything was wrong. Well, I took him in last Monday and after x-rays they have determined he blew out his ACL on his left hind leg and will need repair to retain full use of his leg(he just turned 3) Has anyone else had a Corgi with this? They told me it is rare for a Corgi to tear ACL's usually they see Labs do this. Edward thinks he is a Lab... Anyway we have surgery scheduled this Thursday for complete ACL repair. Please include Edward in your MYCORGI prayers to have a successful surgery. The recovery is going to be very hard for us all as it will entail very limited movement for a while!!!!  Very Nervous and Upset about all of it!!!
