Thanks everybody, I really enjoy reading the comments. This is actually our 5&6th Yorkies, these are bro, sis siblings and now are 17weeks. We got our first puppy in 1976 and have had them ever since.... NEver had a knee problem with any of them... weird....Hugs |
I can't answer that question for you... I can barely answer them for myself. I am think that there are different protocols for juvenile onset and adult onset of symptoms. At almost two, Ranger is completely developed. As yours is a pup, I would think that with proper conditioning you may be able to deal with it by strengthening and conditioning the muscles/tendons/ligaments. Certainly something for you to research though. Good luck.
