Bella has a luxating patella also. I might get a second opinion. Yorkies are known to have this problem. My vet said that as long as she didnt have pain he would not put her thru the surgery. The good thing is you have plenty of time to investigate your options.
My vet told me to walk Bella uphill to strenghten the muscles around the knee to help hold everything in place. Maybe you could try this.
Of course we dont have any hills in FL....so i use a treadmill.
Bella does not limp or act like she is in pain. I am not sure if your baby does.
I would definately so my research first!! Good luck |
