I just got off the phone with the Dr. and Reme is out of his surgery and everthing went great. He is still sleeping so I can't pick him up for a while, but he will be home tonight. He has a plate and six screws in his leg and a two month recovery period.

This is the plate that is in his leg...

and this is how it looks on bone, only the Dr. told me that he used a larger plate on Reme because of his muscular structure so when they do the x rays all you see is plate and hardly any bone. They used a plate that typically is used for 80-100 lb dogs so it will hold up to his athletic abilities.
