I think it's wonderful that you found this other vet, but....I almost think if it were me...I might even get a 3rd opinion, just because the 2 vets had *such* polar opinions, you know? It's just so odd. But, the vet IS right - there are much better supplements now - Cosequin being the best, in my opinion.

Thanks for sharing this bc you are absolutely right - 2nd opinions are so important, bc these surgeries are major for these babies.
I thought the same thing. How does one vet think the cond. is so severe and the other not find any signs of it at all? I certainly hope the 2nd opion is right! I would always wonder though.

All the best
