I agree with every word you wrote, except that my pit is an excellent watch dog. My son, a probation officer, purchased a 5-wk old Red-Nosed American Pitbull eight years ago. Because of his work hours, etc. I soon inherited her & fell in love. I have two granddaughters, 3 & 5 whom she dearly loves. Maya turned eight on this Cinco de Mayo. On her birthday, she turned up lame on her hind leg. Upon taking to my vet, who took x-rays & manipulated her leg to test, she was diagnosed with an acruciate ligament tear (ACL). It is not only a very expensive surgery, but there is a good chance that the same could occur with the other leg! We have many stairs in our house & live in Lake Tahoe area. She will need to be kept quiet & on leash for months, which means that she will be cooped up all summer, living downstairs, away from us. I ran across your website while reading up on ACL injury & options for treatment. She is currently on an anti-inflamatory med. that seems to relieve discomfort & she will even walk on that leg. Now, I am wondering if surgery is the best option, esp. since her vet told me that it was possible she may have the same problem in her other leg because of favoring the injured leg! Have you had any experiences with this injury and your pits? Sincerely, Danelle, a Pit Lover AMEN! I agree with every word you wrote, except that my pit is an excellent watch dog.
