Thank you MrYorkieCrazy, I appreciate the picture of combined expertise at Gulf Coast. I was very impressed with the staff & Ortho specialist.
Curiosity led me to wonder about the process of other LP surgeries. Many yters seem to have a yorkie with LP problems or having surgeries so I wanted to hear how many other lp surgeries have had the femur cut involved. How many have had success with an LP surgery not involving a cut to the femur.
I am gathering information, I'm hoping that the better informed I am the less scared I will feel about putting Jazzie through this LP surgery.
