About Lottie
Lottie is an 8 year old female Poodle who is full of life and energy. She's extremely active and loves nothing more than to be around humans, as she absolutely craves their attention and love. She's incredibly intelligent and loves to learn new things, so if you're looking for a pup with brains you've definitely found the right one!
If you're looking for the perfect companion who will always be there when you need them, look no further than Lottie. She's very friendly and lovable, so she'll fit in perfectly with any family or individual looking for a furry friend. Due to her need for human companionship, she would suit someone who is home often or can take her with them on their day to day travels.
Medical notes
Lottie is approximately 5 weeks post surgical procedure for a Cruciate Ligament Repair Surgery, often referred to as a Lateral Suture.
Extracapsular Lateral Suture Stabilisation, also known as a ‘lateral suture’, ‘extracapsular repair’, ‘fabellotibial suture’ or a ‘tibiofabellar suture’. This technique aims to solve the instability in the dog’s knee joint by placing a strong piece of suture outside the knee joint to act in a similar fashion to the cranial cruciate ligament.
ELSS surgery has a good success rate, with around 85% of dogs regaining complete or near-complete function of the affected leg and 82% of owners reporting they felt their dogs had good or excellent function.
All dogs with cranial cruciate ligament rupture are expected to eventually develop at least some signs of osteoarthritis in the affected joint, but this is likely to be reduced or delayed in dogs who have had a surgical procedure.
Around 50% of dogs will develop cranial cruciate ligament disease in the other hind limb; in some cases this requires immediate surgery, and in others, it may be many years.
We are more than happy to discuss further with interested families!
