Dog ACL Tear? Surgery & Recovery in San Jose

Get Your Dog Moving Again

Surgery & Recovery in San Jose A torn ACL (cranial cruciate ligament) is the #1 orthopedic injury in dogs. ARCH Veterinary in San Jose provides surgical consultation, ACL repair, and in-house physical therapy for a complete recovery — open 8 AM – 10 PM daily. Not every torn cruciate goes straight to TPLO. For small dogs under 30 lbs and for partial tears caught early, a combination of rest, weight management, and rehab can hold the joint together — sometimes for years. For active medium and large dogs (and the South Bay has a lot of them), surgical stabilization usually delivers the cleanest long-term outcome.
