Luxating Patella Surgery Hi, I am new to yorkie talk, I was hoping I could find some information regarding surgery on the luxating patella. I have 2 yorkies, a 2 1/2 year old boy Guinness and a 2 year old little girl Roxy. Roxy has a grade 4 luxating patella on both knees and surgery has been recommended. I am leary of putting her through a surgery if its not necessary and wanted to get more info before making a decision. I met with an orthopedic surgeon this morning about it who said her knees are as bad as they can get so I am leaning towards it. I would love to hear feedback on recovery and any other advice anyone has to offer. Thanks!! |
