Is there anything better than seeing your dog run full speed in an open field or your backyard, filled with so much happiness?
I just came back from the mountains with Pax and seeing him run, happy and injury free, was one of the best moments ever!
Thinking about it now gives me goosebumps, and puts a smile on my face.
But I also can’t stop thinking of all the dogs who get injured and can’t experience the joy of running free in the park, on the beach, or on trails.
Cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) injuries are unfortunately one of the most common culprits behind this scenario.

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