Sorry to hear about your sisters yorkie. Jazzie has a level 4 luxating patella, she will need surgery. The cost in Houston is approx. 2,000.+ I am praying for a miracle to happen, i.e. petanim.com
to help me out with the cost. The ortho vet mentioned that the best time to get the surgery done for her would be when she is 11 months, she is 9 going on 10. If left untreated the repairs can be more, bringing the price up. It's important to test your breeding pups for this so that it is not spread through genetics to the new pups.
I was heartbroken to know Jazzie has LP, the cost just adds to that whole overwhelming feeling.
