I still have not had surgery on my 4 year old Yorkie's back legs. I am undecided what to do and so I am not rushing into anything. I've talked with people that said wonderful things about the surgery on Luxating Patella's and I've talked with people that said their dogs were more lame after the surgery. My little girl is also bowlegged but shows no signs of discomfort, she going up stairs, takes walks everyday and runs around the pool without missing a beat.

I'm not sure it's worth ripping up their legs but then I worry as she gets older the problem will only get worse and then surgery will be harder on her. I'm with you in that it's hard to determine the right decision at this time.

Keep me posted on what decision you make. At this time I'm following my gut instinct to wait it out.
