We are so upset. Out little Lacy has a level 2 luxating patella. Last night while my wife and I were out to dinner she somehow hurt her leg. I believe the patella is dislocated. My Vet is not open today and I cannot afford an emergency visit.

My question is can I pop her knee back in place? Does anyone have intstructions or a video?

My research has shown me that this is fairly common procedure and can be done easily. I just have no idea how. If I can give her relief by doing it I will.

HELP!
