🐾 Meet Darren! 🐾
Darren is a gorgeous 6‑year‑old Labradoodle who came to Animal Orthopaedic Specialists after being referred by his regular vet. Darren had been diagnosed with a ruptured cruciate ligament.
Following a consultation with Dr David, Darren underwent a Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO). From start to finish, he was an absolute star—brave, happy, and full of tail wags both before and after surgery.
Our team is very much looking forward to seeing Darren back for his post‑surgery check‑ups… especially for plenty more cuddles! 💙
