I've recently started looking for a new dog to bring into my life and I've become comitted to the idea of adopting a tripod. I've spoken with my vet and done some research online and the general answer I keep getting is some variation of "Once they heal from the amputation, they're just fine!" Forgive me for sounding dubious, but that just seems too easy. I know that keeping extra weight off is extremely importiant, but I was wondering if you lovely folks could offer me some advice. Are there any questions I should be sure to ask? Things I should look out for? Issues I might expect in the future?
I have actually put in an application to adopt a beautiful year old tripod girl. She had her right rear leg amputated at the hip in early September because the bone was shattered when someone shot her

Thank you for your help!
