Thanks. I'm sorry about Rylie and Lacy.
I'm assuming it's not grade 4, i dont know much but she doesn't limp or hold it up except that one day, and when she sprays outside. I am going to get a second opinion from my vet 'cause the one i went to really didn't check her well, he was in some hurry. I really hope she doesn't need surgery. It's really common, i cant believe most have it. So far they are at a healthy weight, and i carry London a lot cause she doesn't even like walking outside too much and she never jumps off and on stuff so guess i will have to keep doing that. It's just Teddy is so active and jumps everywhere
