it is very prominent in ALL toy breeds. Some is genetic some is injury. if a puppy has it, it is probably genetic and if the dog is older, it is probably acquired. I have known show dogs with L.P. The vets I have talked to about it have said, if you find a yorkie that doesn't have it to some degree, bring it in, I want to see it. it is really easy to check your puppy for Lp. I posted it in another thread somewhere on here last night. And just because the joint might pop a little at times, doesn't mean it has L.P. |
