I don't recommend the surgery either unless there is limping and pain. If you give glucosmine it does help with the joints and help with the arthritis.
I keep saying I need to get a good supplement. There is a good liquid one I may try soon. Lacys right patella is out almost all the time but I can move it with my fingers. It won't stay in the groove though. I reread the scale because I kept thinking it had to be worse than a three but then saw the difference was a four couldn't be manipulated back in the groove.

Btw Patty - lacy came with a 48 hour health guarantee too...such a joke. Something like Parvo even takes longer than 48 hours to show symptoms from exposure.
