Gracie had bilateral LP surgery, grade 2 and grade 3. She was skipping on one leg. My GF is a vet. She said a dog experiences pain every time the patella luxates whether they show pain or not. In her opinion, she would fix a grade 2 or higher. I have known her since high school and would trust her with my life. The only way to be sure that you will prevent the pain and disability associated with arthritis of the knees later is to fix the LP now. Speak to your vet, your veterinary surgeon, and anyone else you trust so you can make the right decision for your baby.
