Don't worry ... I didnt read luxating patellas through all the posts except for the first one as I am at work now. But luxating patellas are VERY common. As a matter of fact, it is mostly shocking that Yorkies don't have that. They grade the luxating patellas from 1-4. 1 & 2 are so normal that nothing is ever done to it and most likely won't affect the puppies in their lifetime unless they get worse. Maybe 3 and definitely 4 is when they may require surgery for correction.
So if you babies have a grade 1 and or 2, no worries at all. |
