However, I've been keeping a close watch on her and have never noticed her limping or favoring any leg. In any case, I'm going to take her for 2nd opinion. I'll continue to keep Hot Rod in my thoughts!
Thanks, sorry to hear about Cassi. Did they say what level of LP? I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers. Through all of this the vet thinks that his hip is possibly the cause of the LP as she really didn't think is LP was that bad prior to this. I did see that he was favoring his hip when we got home. Now in retrospect I can see that he has been off in his walking. We'd thought that one of his coats was a little tight on him and was making him kinda "waddle" but I am thinking it has been his hip all along. (?) He's always kinda moved his hips in a strange way. I remember thinking how he seemed to be stiff or weird in the way his backside sometimes moved. This could be why.
