Hallee went to the vet twice this week with same thing. We don't know how she did it. She started limping really bad Sunday night. Vet put her on Rimadyl also. Both her back legs, but her left is worse than the right. He said we are looking at surgery for her left because every time it moves her knee slips.He wanted to see how she is in 10 days. However, our vet said he could do the surgery, but we are more comfy with ortho specialist with small breeds. We have already gotten a referral and we will know more details about the appointment tomorrow. They estimated it will cost us 900.00-1200.00 for the surgery. I trust my vet, but I will be happy when the specialist checks her out to determine if she really needs the surgery right now. We are just trying to keep her from trying to jump on the couch ect. We have refrained from sitting on the couch because she keeps wanting up and down, so we just sit on the floor with her. Just breaks my heart seeing her limp ect. However, she has not made a sound as if she is in pain.
