Smile luxating patellas

Hi, My 7 month old Annie had the surgery on her back left leg last week. She is doing very well. Can't jump or chase the cat for awhile. Kept in a playpen and does very well. On pain medications and antibiotic for the next week or so. We saw 3 vets and not one would x-ray her legs and finally found a ortho vet and that is first thing he did. Found she was a grade 5 and was in need of the surgery now. If we didn't do it, she may have been lame or her leg would have been held up. So with that information we said do the surgery. If you have a dog that is showing any of these problems, get the vet to x-ray now.
