How long before my dog heals from TPLO surgery?

Healing from TPLO surgery tends to be rapid, as long as secondary infections or other problems don’t develop. Roughly half of canine patients that receive TPLO surgery will be able to walk on the affected limb within 24 hours of surgery, and most are bearing most of their previous amount of weight on the leg within 2 weeks. At roughly 16 weeks after surgery, most dogs are able to play normally, with on very stressful activities like jumping limited.
