Does anyone's baby suffers Patella Luxation? My puppy is 4 months old, after i took him to the breeder, the vet told him he has Patella Luxation on his hind leg, which the groove is too shallow, the patella will slip out when the knee bends.

I was disappointed because my supposedly reputable breeder failed to inform me when i got him. I don't want to return my puppy since we're already bonded.

Today, we suddenly see him started limping when he was running. it went away in a minute. He wasn't in pain i think. I wonder if this condition will get any worse. Does anyone have this issue with their yorkie? I'm very worried.
