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 |
