Default Legges-Perthes disease

Hi, I am a newbie to these forums and wanted to know whether anyone had experience of Legges-Perthes disease in their Yorkies. My 9 month old boy, Denzil, had his surgery for bi-lateral LP yesterday and is doing ok. The surgeon was very pleased with how the op went and is confident he will be fine, I went to see him today at Wanstead animal hospital and took him some chicken as he refused to eat the hospital food! It was heart-breaking to leave him as he started crying as I almost did myself, but we pick him up on Friday.

If your Yorkie had this disease, how did he recover after surgery if he had to have it? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Tracy
