Text me your question or inquiry here!Hey friends! This week on the pod, we’re diving into one of the most common orthopedic issues in dogs—cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) tears. We’re talking everything from what makes some dogs more prone to this injury, to the signs you’ll notice if it happens, and what your treatment options really are. We even kick things off with a spicy hot take (spoiler: flea prevention doesn’t protect ligaments).Do you have a question or inquiry for me?
