I had a Lab that tore both CCL's cranial crucrate ligaments (the equivalent of a ACL in humans). I elected to have the TPLO surgery done and it was very successful, but she was under 2 years old. For a canine athlete my advise is TPLO surgery (the more expensive option) is the only way to go. Since your dog would require over a year to fully recover and since she is 8, I would retire her. Very crushing, I feel sorry for you it is a real blow to a dog man. Good luck with your decision,
