Our rescue dog, Honey, has had to have two TPLO surgeries - about a year apart - due to torn cruciate ligaments in the back legs. Dr. Pugliese performed both surgeries and after care. We could not say enough about Dr. Pugliese - she's simply wonderful. She explained options, what to expect before/during/through recovery and was so very kind and empathetic. The recovery period is long, and she even gave us ideas about how to prevent our 70lb lug from jumping on couches, etc. during her recovery. You could tell she understood not just the actual surgery, but also what it was like to manage it after - which is so important for an owner. She even took a picture and sent us updates after the procedure to make us feel better after the operation - without us asking. What a sweet thing to do for worried doggy parents. Our dog healed so well from both surgeries, and we thank Dr. Pugliese for sharing her expertise. Honey is happy to once again chase squirrels (in the spring of course).
