There are actually a few people that have left the leg alone and the dog has done fine. Supplements heavily and lots of rest.
Personally If I had to do it again I would go for a simple reattachment, not a full blow TPLO. I have much misery and ended up putting my male down- 4 yrs later he was still in pain.
Some people here have had good luck with it though. Brian King is one.

Nero after his surgery...


Two years later, still holding his leg up....


Just remember- all surgeries have risks. He simply had a lot of complications. They have not done any research on GIANT breed dogs with a TPLO.
