Shelby had LP in both of her back legs. She had surgery by an orthopedic surgeon that did a wonderful job 1 year ago. She had higher grade LP and after consulting with my vet, and then getting another opinion, we went and had a consultation with the surgeon....... who was very informative.
I think it depends on the grade of LP and if you feel the quality of life would improve for your dog if you opt for surgery. You can search here on YT and read LOTS of info on the subject. That is how I got most of my information. The owners that have experienced this have posted some very good info.
Good Luck to you!
By the way..... Shelby is doing fine!!! And I am very glad we went with a specialist for her care.
