I have a 6 yr old westie. She had ACL surgery on June 15. She wants to play but I still walk her on a leash and restrict her activity inside and outside. I will let her go down a couple steps by herself but I carry her up steps. this week I have access to a lake and have been letting her swim as tolerated. She still stands with her leg up on its toes and sometimes is back up on 3 legs. When she gets up from lying down for awhile she will have a fairly decent limp. Is this normal?

I noticed that this was your first post and wanted to let you know that there is also a "Pets Forum." You will probably get more responses about your Westie if you post your question there, under the "Dogs" section.
