Wow that's scary...do you know how much approx it costs to get them evaluated for it? Or is it just something the vet could tell from a simple check up?
She's a year old. |
Your regular vet will be able to tell if she has LP or not. If it's more severe and surgery is recommended, you'll want to get a second opinion from an orthopedic vet.
It's a pricey surgery, several thousand dollars. Is your sister taking any responsibility for her dog?
I agree with Zanders Mom. You'll need to get all the dogs you are going to breed cleared for LP. I'm sure you plan on offering a health guarantee and you sure don't want to have to pay for a bunch of LP surgeries down the line.
That sure would eat into the doggie clothes budget!
