Is there anything better than seeing your dog running at full speed in an open field or in your backyard, full of happiness?
I just came off the mountain with Pax and seeing him running, happy and injury free, was one of the best moments!
Thinking about it now gives me goosebumps, and puts a smile on my face.
But I also can’t help but think of all the dogs that are injured and can’t experience the joy of running free in the park, on the beach, or on the trails.
Cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) injuries are unfortunately one of the most common culprits behind this situation.

If your dog experiences a cruciate ligament tear, surgery may often be the best option. But, early detection and knowing what to do can provide some other options.
When our dogs are injured, it’s natural to worry and feel sad, but it’s also a great opportunity to learn how to help them recover so they can run free and full of joy again.
