My chihuahua had surgery

Yesterday, my one of my Chihuahua's, Baby Mo (usually just call her Mo or Mo-Dee-Doe or Molicious or Mo-dee or booger dog... you get the idea) had knee surgery. For real - she had a floating kneecap and it started hurting her. Well since she came home from the vet yesterday she has been on a pillow next me. She hasn't complained a bit. I tell her not to lick and she stops. She doesn't try to move around. I bring her food and water and carry her over to her potty pad. But the thing that is killing me is she doesn't let me know anything... I have no idea when she needs or wants something because she is so quiet. That is good and all but I hope I am doing okay by her and getting her what she needs or wants relatively promptly. I know she is in pain and I totally respect how well she has handled herself. But giving me a little clue when she has some kind of need would really help a lot too. At least I would feel more confident that I'm doing good by her... grrrr....

    Hi,
    My dog may be undergoing knee surgery because ever since i bought her from the breeder she has been walking with a limp. i was worried so i took her to the vet and they said everything was fine that she just walked funny but she was in no pain. anyways recently i found out that her kneecap is dislocated and she needs surgery. i was just wondering if your chihuahua went under anesthesia because i heard that a lot of chihuahuas die when they go under. i am really worried and would really appreciate if you would get back to me i just feel like you could help me out because you have gone through a similar situation. i love my puppy and im really worried. i would appreciate your advice.
