 Pebbles had knee surgery today
My Pebbles is 9 years old and we have known since she was 1 1/2 years old that she had bad patellas. It became much worse in the last few months. An orthopedic surgeon from a nearby town comes to my vets office every other week to do surgery. It cost $808.00 for her right knee.
She is doing well so far tonight. Because she also has liver shunt and Lupus I was afraid she might not do okay, but she is really a fighter.
Good luck. Do see a specialist. One of my old poodles had surgery from just a regular vet. His leg was permanently fused in a bent position. Maybe the vet had nothing to do with it, but I have always wished I had tried a specialist |
