Put an old carpet in the area where she is confined. It should cover all the area where she is. Slippery tiles are the enemy of her recovery. Once the recovery progresses she will be up more and you want her to have a sure footing as much as possible.
It’s so hard when a pet is injured or sick. They truly are family & we worry about them just as much as anybody else. I hope Onyx makes a full recovery. ❤️
Oh bless her. Our pets are more than just pets aren’t they… they’re part of the family & we love them with all our heart ❤️ ☺️ Slow & steady to get well again Onyx. Have you got pet insurance? Hugs & woofs 😘🐾
I’m so happy Onyx will be ok. What a blessing. Your so good with her. The kids are lucky to have such great companions ❤️❤️ There baby photos are adorable! I love black dogs. In the states there usually the last color to get picked. It’s sad. Here’s to her recovery ❤️🩹 We are huge dog lovers. We have a pit bull whose an angel x thinks he’s a lap dog. We just found out he’s got a ton of medical issues. He’s stayed at the vet twice now. We just got a call saying Tiger might have cancer. He’s almost 9 and my heart is broken. Their like children to us. We lost our chihuahua last year. As much as you love them, my God they break your heart.
Oh Edd and Anna! This touched me in so many ways. I had a black lab named Onyx who loved my children so much. Last year, my current little dog Olivia was attacked by a wild animal and almost died. That was $3,000, which I fortunately had saved for emergencies. I gladly paid it. Our pets are our family! Much love to you and your pups. I wish Onyx a very speedy recovery. 💕
"Doucement, doucement." You're breaking my heart Edd. This is a bittersweet episode. It made me smile and shed a few tears too. It's always so sad when our four-legged friends go through these ordeals. Line-breeding or incest breeding is such an unfortunate reality and difficult to avoid for many pet owners. I've rejected numerous pets for this very reason, including freshwater fish for my aquariums. They tend to have many health issues and then die very young, which I suppose can be a blessing for some of them. It's sad that this pactice persists among unscrupulous breeders, who are clearly not what I would call "animal lovers." It's a huge problem here in the U.S., especially with so many new designer breeds popping up. My sister received a Pomeranian puppy from her fiancée back in 1973. He bought it from a "reputable" local kennel that boasted having over 100 breeds to pick from. What a nightmare something as special as the gift of a sweet little puppy turned into. The miniaturizing of breeds is also problematic with sometimes tragic results. Hopefully no one blames you for what's happening to Onyx. Selecting a pet or companion animal is such an emotional experience. It's so easy to make a mistake. From you own explanation of why you chose Cane Corsos, you'd obviously given the decision some thoughtful consideration. The whole justification of breeders is that they are supposed to be the experts on their breed/s. There are breeds I refuse to consider solely because of the issues inherent in their breed. A mere pedigree doesn't ensure a life without problems. I applaud your willingness and compassion to choose the most expensive and humane option when no one would ever have known otherwise. Integrity is what you do when no one is watching. You're also setting a good example for your children. I hope that your fortunes are enriched many fold for your act of compassion. I enjoy watching your vlogs more and more. It's good to see your humanity as well as your cheeky comments. I wish you and your family happiness and good fortune! Crack on!
aww, sending healing prayers for Onyx. You are both caring and very responsible people, I know you will follow the Vet's directions in regards to her healing. God bless Onyx in her recuperation and your family in helping her heal. xx
Awwww poor Onyx and Oprah must be missing her sister too. You’re doing the best for her , they become so “ human” so much part of our families. I’m sure she’s in good hands , it’s a shame you can’t bring her to the UK to see the “ Super vet” Noel Fitzpatrick, he’s amazing and he performs real miracles with the work he does on animals, especially orthopaedics and prosthetics. He’s a pioneer in his field. Get well soon Onyx xx ♥️♥️
I’ve noticed the bond Emma has with the dogs. It is so enduring considering the size of a cane corso and little Emma. I have an acquaintance that breeds award winning cane corsos. She is here the U.S. but allot of her stock comes from Europe. They are great family dogs as long as the owner socializes and trains them well. I hope she recovers well.
My dog had the same or similar surgery earlier this year. Recovery was long and slow. It took her over 3 months to get back to her normal. The outcome of the surgery was positive and my dog is able to run and play again with minimal limping. During recovery I found icing the leg after the short walks helped the healing/swelling. A bag of frozen peas works great 🙂 . Our vet suggested having non slip mats down, massaging the leg and doing passive range of motion. Wishing your girl a good recovery. She looks like she's doing great already.❤️
Ahh bless her! I have three black labs. The oldest one is 14.5. I took him to vets recently and the vet told me that when they arch their spine along the back, they are in pain. That’s how we found out he had a swelling in his prostrate. I noticed that Onyx had quite an arched spine when she had finished her walk. Much love to Onyx and you all xx
It’s very difficult keeping her calm when all they want to do is run and play.She’s actually very accepting of the situation .Hopefully she will be fine and yes vet costs are horrendous
Sending so much love and healing energy to Onyx. She is absolutely magnificent. We have a sweet brindle Corso pup ourselves....she told me to say "You got this Cousin!!"❤❤❤
The dogs are stunning. They are part of your family and of course you want the best for them. To see them around Emma is so heart warming. Best of Luck with the recovery. Glad you shared the story with us. Know you will be doing your best to follow the dr. orders.
The care you're taking of your 2 dogs is a reflection of your good character, compassion and integrity. Many good healing wishes for Onyx. The suggestion of putting old carpet over the tiles seems an excellent idea to me.
Onyx seems like she will recover well. Emma is a good little caretaker! My daughter and I recently bought a house together and we got an all gray Cane Corso with amber eyes. She's gentle with children also. Named her Daisy. Then a month ago we got an adoption male puppy to keep her company and occupied. He's a mixed breed, not quite sure what breed. Lol
Sorry to hear about Onyx's knee problem, torn cruciate ligament. It’s a common problem. We were extremely worried for our dog, especially the need to restrain their activity for 12 weeks after surgery and avoid them running, jumping, climbing stairs, etc. It was a difficult 3 months but the surgery really does work as long as you keep them rested and allow the 3 month recovery period. Our dog had his TPLO surgery in Hong Kong. USD$10K! So we are glad to hear its much cheaper in France (where we have just moved -- with our dogs!). Good luck with your dogs recovery.
I am a veterinarian technician, they do have braces for dogs with ACL and for patellar subluxation. Check with your veterinarian to see if onyx will benefit from a brace on her right leg, to prevent the ligaments tearing so soon And Delay surgery. Your dogs are beautiful and such gentle Giants.
Yes. That is a good think to do. She's active and growing which likely has alot to do with the tear. Maybe a brace will prevent another tear 👍Sure hope🙏🏻 so.
Best wishes for her! Bless her heart. ❤️ My dog had both done. Not at the same time. No cone either. I slept with him on the floor the first couple of days. Fully recovered. Saved his quality of life.
We went through the same thing 2 years ago. It was expensive and we had complications. The recovery was long and difficult but our girl can run and play again. Chances are we will be doing the other knee at some point in the future. We love our fur babies. They are truly family.
I have 2 female English mastiffs now but have had English mastiffs over 25 years. She may always have to be kept closer to home but that just gives you more of a chance to love 💕 on her. These big guys are built for comfort lol not speed lol. My girls are 150 lbs (68 k) and 230 lbs (104 k). I do understand vetting them is VERY pricy. Just spent almost $4k saving the smaller one but she’s almost 11 yo and that is EXTREMELY elderly but if I could I was going to save her. They are so very special. Welcome to the poor house of mastiff guardianship. Your girls are gorgeous. Everyone you get will steal your heart in their own special way. You are so lucky to be owned by such a wonderful connection. I imagine it’s like being cared for by my own unique dragon like in the ancient tales lol
My beloved Doberman who passed shy of 13 years old had 2 ACL surgeries 3 years apart. Both consisted of 3 surgeries each time. Two of those included knee work from MRSA with the best surgeons, 325 miles apart in Las Vegas, Nevada and Brentwood, California. Summer was not yet 5 years old the first surgery and over 7 years for the second ACL surgery. Both were difficult and Both extended her ability to run and dig and play. She was my greatest love. Get the ACL surgery if your dog needs it.
My havanese girl had the same injury. Sadly or humorously- at the time sad, looking back funny, I had broken leg at the same time. We were a pitiful pair. I couldn’t take care of her for the first month and found a wonderful friend who fostered her then the first month. Healthy prayers to you all.
I loved it when little Emma, sat down and onyx shook her head and all the drool went all over her!!! AND when she plopped down and squeeled and onxy flopped over, her face was like "OH OH" then she smiled so sweetly. I love love love your channel!!
We had large dogs (Irish Water Spanials) with knee problems. Post op we cooled Dunchon and Finnagans joint with a 16 0z bag of frozen corn or peas. Once recovered we had them walk in a kiddy pool. Note side effect is both LOVED swimming! Gentle rub of coconut oil over the leg helped shorten recovery. It also will give nurse Emma a job with supervision. Wishing speedy recovery to Onyx.
Onyx is such a beautiful dog they are both very gentle towards Emma .Wishing her a speedy recovery, as I know like you Edd and Anna will do everything possible to keep our loving pets in good health. Still you have little nurse Emma to look after her . xx
Firstly, OMG!!..cant believe you put that on camera btw - you wee devils!! 🤣🤣 ....and Mr Holmes, I'll "scotch tape" ye, any mair a' yer cheek! 😂😂🤣 ...Happy Bday mister 😉😘 .....Secondly & more importantly, that poor wee pup!! 💗💗 her wee face, she looks so sorry for herself, if it's an ACL injury it wont be nice for her at all (bad enough on humans & we can speak)...She seems to be recovering ok though, she's walking remarkably well already! It is said, animals heal faster than humans though which is great! Give her lots n lots of love, light & hugs!!! 💗💕💖😘 ...and sausages! 😂😁
Awwwww, what a touching story. You are not only great parents to your children, but to those wonderful "doggies". With all your care and attention, I'm sure Onyx will make a full recovery.
You have a wonderfully well behaved dogs and children you are both great people and doing such a great job at living well! Love your beautifull home! Emma and the dogs do well together so sweet!
Awwww! Poor pupper! We get so much love from our pets as well as working dogs who also provide service to our family. They are part of our family and responsible owners do exactly what you did which is to give them the best care we can. Please give both of them a pat from me with hope they are both back to their old selves again very soon.
Sweet girl. Hoping she heals.well. Thank you both for loving her and caring for her so.well. As she gets more mobile you may consider putting some scrap rug down for her on tile floors. You don't want her to slip. I've been through surgeries with dogs before and it does help them to have a carpeted surface. My best to you all.
They are gorgeous dogs. Crucial ligament operations are expensive and the recovery process is the most important thing so as not to undo the benefits of the op. Good luck darling Onyx you are in loving hands xx
Aaw, the little I spoke to them while I was there made me realise what lovely girls they are! Sorry she has had to go through that. Sending you all LOVE and healing thoughts ❤️
Onyx, we all send you prayers, love, and healing light for your recovery. When I (Bennie Rose, Staffordshire Terrier) had to stay calm for one month during heart worm treatment my vet kept me on calming medication each day to help me stay calm. My mom and dad weren't sure about every day medication but it did help me, I'm usually quite excitable. I know you will come through recovery with flying colors, as we dogs are unbeatable.
What a Sweetheart, she seems to know everyone is trying to get her well and make her feel.better. This brought tears to me. ❤Xoxo Matt from California 🌴🌴🌴
What a sweet puppy! I'm glad she has her special Emma nurse looking out for her. I hope she gets to be back with her sister soon. Glad they both have such a loving family. ❤️💕
I'm SO SORRY for poor Onyx - I hope she's feeling 100% very soon. They're such an integral part of a family- We had several dogs when I was growing up and its so precious. We had a Golden Labrador who went EVERYWHERE with dad in the ute, Dad buckled him into his seat belt in the front seat and off they went! If he had to stay home dad would say, Look after Mum, Mr Chips- and Chips would lie across the back door mat until Dad got home! He did NOT move
My dog Luna who's an American Staffy x Australian Kelpie was diagnosed with a few health conditions but she's gone through a few surgeries. A luxating patella surgery was soooo expensive and the work that went into building up her mobility again was slow and steady. A lot of work but the steady pace and gradual building back of her mobility was so worth it. It's a beautiful day when you see your dog back to their old self. 🥰🐶
Thank you so much for letting us know. I Know 2 of my friends dogs who have had this it does take time .However they are fine now .Bless her .They are our fur babies
So sorry to hear about Onyx's injury and surgery and lengthy recuperation. Our pets are really our 'furry children'' and it's so hard to watch them when they're I'll or injured. So glad her prognosis is good. She's such a beautiful dog .... they both are. Sending sloth get wells to her.
AWWW sending healing prayers Onyx. And ED we know its alot of money l went thru this too but they are family. They are stunning dogs. both u and Anna are caring people. Sending my love to Onyx
They’re beautiful girls! My niece has one and they are truly gentle giants! I’ve also had an entire year of back and forth with the vet. It started with my boys platelets bottoming out. He has an autoimmune disorder, most likely caused by double Merle breeding. Then this October had an eye ulcer which is one expensive operation, but he recovered famously and then there was the $600 bacteria infection! It only costed so much bc of running test to make sure his platelets were still in normal range and the X-ray to make sure he didn’t have an obstruction….deep sigh. I love the darling any way and he is probably the sweetest dog I’ve ever had in my life!
What beautiful dogs. But so hard when they are not well. I well remember my little Podenco Andaluz having her cruciate ligament sorted just after I adopted her and having to keep her in a crate to stop her playing with my other Podenco. But it was worth it - she made a complete recovery and is now back to being the little scamp she was before the op. Sending healing hugs for Onyx, although with sweet little Emma nursing her she will be right as rain in no time!!.
My daughter has a Cane Corso Mastiff named Athena. She is absolutely the sweetest dog I have ever met. Athena had the same surgery 3 years ago. While it was hard to keep her still for 2 months...the surgery was successful and Athena has no pain and most of her range of motion returned. So, hang in there...the time will pass quicker than you think and she will be running in the woods again soon!
I watch Vet On A Hill from the UK and have heard this before in the large breeds , our pets are such a huge investments , emotionally and financial . Bless you for doing the best you can for those beauties , Good luck in the future with her .
OMG!!! Heal well SWEET BABY PUPPY Onyx!!! ALL My love to you & your sweet FAMILY!!! I am sending you ALL my love, light and wishes for a swift recovery!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us. I grew up with bull mastiffs so when ever I see Onyx and Oprah on your vlog, I think of the ones my family had. I'm glad she's walking on the leg. I hope she makes a full recovery. I bet having the kids love on her a lot will help too.❤️
Prays from Delaware for Onyx and a solid healthy recovery too! They are both beautiful gentle dogs! I had my dog for 18 years, their love for us is unconditional. All the best!
Oh poor darling. I know that you are the best parents ever, and will do everything to aid her recovery. Sending love and healing thoughts to Onyx and hugs to you all. X
My aunt and uncle have a male Cane Corso named Saban (After the football coach at The University of Alabama) and my cousin has a female Mia. Unfortunately, Mia has been diagnosed with osteosarcoma. We have retired racing greyhounds and I was worried you were going to say she has Osteo. The XL breeds are prone to it unfortunately but the gentle giants are just such sweethearts. I hope Onyx has a speedy recovery !
So sorry to hear about Onyx...wishing her a speedy recovery! Your dogs are beautiful! So sweet to see Emma with the dogs! Thank you for sharing, take really good care of yourselves, stay well! Much love Kathy x 💖
Sweet puppy. Going to pray for her and her sibling. He could come down with the same thing. Is saying a prayer for the family. Emma just loves the dogs. So sweet. God-bless you all and keep safe
Ed, you and Anna are kind loving people. Your dogs are so blessed to have you both as their owners. Our family animals are so much part of our family. Love how your little angel loves him so much. You all take care. I'll be praying for your dog's speedy recovery. God bless all.
Awww I am so pleased that she is going to get better.Both Oprah and Onyx are adorable 😍. And a huge thank you to both of you for sharing this precious story with us. You can see how much you and Ed and Emma really genuinely love and care for them both. Please can you give both huge hugs and kisses from me. Im sending absolute abundance of love and healing to Onyx xx
OH dear so sorry to hear she needs to go through that. Pets are part of the family and we want to do what we can to help them. Hope all goes really well.
God bless you for doing right by your beautiful dog Onyx and may she have a full and speedy recovery.I so wish some breeders would do what is right for the breed to avoid things like this happening. It will be so nice for her when she can see her sister again.💖💞💖
lovely to see two dogs is such amazing condition and with so much love and care showered upon them, with real waggy tails and expressive ears. wishing Onyx a complete recovery so she can get back to her family shenanigans' in the spring xx
Put an old carpet in the area where she is confined. It should cover all the area where she is. Slippery tiles are the enemy of her recovery.
Once the recovery progresses she will be up more and you want her to have a sure footing as much as possible.
Very good advice!
Excellent advice!! We put carpets and actually yoga mats down everywhere for my Great Dane to make walking safer and easier during her recovery.
I bought weight room tiles (cheap and effective) for ours who were rehabbing or simply getting older.
Great idea..hope Ed and Anna see this.
It’s so hard when a pet is injured or sick. They truly are family & we worry about them just as much as anybody else. I hope Onyx makes a full recovery. ❤️
Oh bless her. Our pets are more than just pets aren’t they… they’re part of the family & we love them with all our heart ❤️ ☺️ Slow & steady to get well again Onyx. Have you got pet insurance? Hugs & woofs 😘🐾
I’m so happy Onyx will be ok. What a blessing. Your so good with her. The kids are lucky to have such great companions ❤️❤️ There baby photos are adorable! I love black dogs.

Oh poor doggy! Hope she will make a full recovery!
Get well Onyx. Thank you Anna and Edd for being such good dog parents. With Emma there, it's sure to be a fast recovery.
Try wrapping a comfrey poultice on her leg and investigate putting Tumeric in her food. Bless her. I hope she recovers magnificently.🙏💞🌻

Yes. That is a good think to do. She's active and growing which likely has alot to do with the tear. Maybe a brace will prevent another tear 👍Sure hope🙏🏻 so.

You have a wonderfully well behaved dogs and children you are both great people and doing such a great job at living well! Love your beautifull home! Emma and the dogs do well together so sweet!
Awwww! Poor pupper! We get so much love from our pets as well as working dogs who also provide service to our family. They are part of our family and responsible owners do exactly what you did which is to give them the best care we can. Please give both of them a pat from me with hope they are both back to their old selves again very soon.
Wishing Onyx a speedy recovery. She's a beautiful, sweet dog and I wish her a long life.
Sweet girl. Hoping she heals.well. Thank you both for loving her and caring for her so.well. As she gets more mobile you may consider putting some scrap rug down for her on tile floors. You don't want her to slip. I've been through surgeries with dogs before and it does help them to have a carpeted surface. My best to you all.
I'm glad Onyx is doing well in her recovery! Dogs are such a huge part of our lives. Sending all the best from me & my 2 boys 😊🐶🐶
They are gorgeous dogs. Crucial ligament operations are expensive and the recovery process is the most important thing so as not to undo the benefits of the op. Good luck darling Onyx you are in loving hands xx
Aaw, the little I spoke to them while I was there made me realise what lovely girls they are! Sorry she has had to go through that. Sending you all LOVE and healing thoughts ❤️
Thats awful for you all to go through,im glad shes recovering so well,shes a precious creature. As always,
Cheers!
Onyx, we all send you prayers, love, and healing light for your recovery. When I (Bennie Rose, Staffordshire Terrier) had to stay calm for one month during heart worm treatment my vet kept me on calming medication each day to help me stay calm. My mom and dad weren't sure about every day medication but it did help me, I'm usually quite excitable. I know you will come through recovery with flying colors, as we dogs are unbeatable.
What a Sweetheart, she seems to know everyone is trying to get her well and make her feel.better. This brought tears to me. ❤Xoxo Matt from California 🌴🌴🌴
What a sweet puppy! I'm glad she has her special Emma nurse looking out for her. I hope she gets to be back with her sister soon. Glad they both have such a loving family. ❤️💕
I'm SO SORRY for poor Onyx - I hope she's feeling 100% very soon. They're such an integral part of a family- We had several dogs when I was growing up and its so precious. We had a Golden Labrador who went EVERYWHERE with dad in the ute, Dad buckled him into his seat belt in the front seat and off they went! If he had to stay home dad would say, Look after Mum, Mr Chips- and Chips would lie across the back door mat until Dad got home! He did NOT move
My dog Luna who's an American Staffy x Australian Kelpie was diagnosed with a few health conditions but she's gone through a few surgeries. A luxating patella surgery was soooo expensive and the work that went into building up her mobility again was slow and steady. A lot of work but the steady pace and gradual building back of her mobility was so worth it. It's a beautiful day when you see your dog back to their old self. 🥰🐶
Praying and wishing our darling Onyx a speedy recovery. We love our pets just like we love our friends and family. With Love! 🙏💞♥🥰
Thank you so much for letting us know. I Know 2 of my friends dogs who have had this it does take time .However they are fine now .Bless her .They are our fur babies
Oh baby, for all of her issues she seems like a happy girl though. It’s a blessing how cooperative she is, it will certainly help ease the healing.
So sorry to hear about Onyx's injury and surgery and lengthy recuperation. Our pets are really our 'furry children'' and it's so hard to watch them when they're I'll or injured. So glad her prognosis is good. She's such a beautiful dog .... they both are. Sending sloth get wells to her.
AWWW sending healing prayers Onyx. And ED we know its alot of money l went thru this too but they are family. They are stunning dogs. both u and Anna are caring people. Sending my love to Onyx
They’re beautiful girls! My niece has one and they are truly gentle giants!
I’ve also had an entire year of back and forth with the vet. It started with my boys platelets bottoming out. He has an autoimmune disorder, most likely caused by double Merle breeding.
Then this October had an eye ulcer which is one expensive operation, but he recovered famously and then there was the $600 bacteria infection! It only costed so much bc of running test to make sure his platelets were still in normal range and the X-ray to make sure he didn’t have an obstruction….deep sigh.
I love the darling any way and he is probably the sweetest dog I’ve ever had in my life!
What beautiful dogs. But so hard when they are not well. I well remember my little Podenco Andaluz having her cruciate ligament sorted just after I adopted her and having to keep her in a crate to stop her playing with my other Podenco. But it was worth it - she made a complete recovery and is now back to being the little scamp she was before the op. Sending healing hugs for Onyx, although with sweet little Emma nursing her she will be right as rain in no time!!.
My daughter has a Cane Corso Mastiff named Athena. She is absolutely the sweetest dog I have ever met.
Athena had the same surgery 3 years ago. While it was hard to keep her still for 2 months...the surgery was successful and Athena has no pain and most of her range of motion returned.
So, hang in there...the time will pass quicker than you think and she will be running in the woods again soon!
You are both so caring. What a beauty Onyx is and hope she gets better very soon.
I watch Vet On A Hill from the UK and have heard this before in the large breeds , our pets are such a huge investments , emotionally and financial . Bless you for doing the best you can for those beauties , Good luck in the future with her .
Oh wow, praying for the best for her!!! Thank you for sharing!!! May want to give her health foods to speed up healing process.
OMG!!! Heal well SWEET BABY PUPPY Onyx!!! ALL My love to you & your sweet FAMILY!!! I am sending you ALL my love, light and wishes for a swift recovery!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us. I grew up with bull mastiffs so when ever I see Onyx and Oprah on your vlog, I think of the ones my family had. I'm glad she's walking on the leg. I hope she makes a full recovery. I bet having the kids love on her a lot will help too.❤️
Prays from Delaware for Onyx and a solid healthy recovery too! They are both beautiful gentle dogs! I had my dog for 18 years, their love for us is unconditional. All the best!
Oh poor darling. I know that you are the best parents ever, and will do everything to aid her recovery. Sending love and healing thoughts to Onyx and hugs to you all. X
"Respect the healing process" - so true for humans as well as animals. God bless you Ed and Anna!
Onyx looks like she is recovering well. Fingers crossed she continues on that road.
My aunt and uncle have a male Cane Corso named Saban (After the football coach at The University of Alabama) and my cousin has a female Mia. Unfortunately, Mia has been diagnosed with osteosarcoma. We have retired racing greyhounds and I was worried you were going to say she has Osteo. The XL breeds are prone to it unfortunately but the gentle giants are just such sweethearts. I hope Onyx has a speedy recovery !
Onxy is a beautiful girl. Sending healing prayers and prayers for full recovery. Your loving care will help her mend.
Thank you for loving them and taking great care of them. Dogs are our family. Prayers.
Arrhh poor pup, doing really well though, with nurse Emma's loving care, get well soon X🐾🐾X
