Neither vet gave an exact grade. They just said "they were slightly loose". Neither gave a "grade". I'll ask the next time she goes in, which will hopefully be this week.

The vet I'm not happy with said, that they make get worse when she gets older meaning surgery but right now it wasn't anything to worry about. Just keep her from jumping a lot. I had to ask him about glucosamine and he said yes go ahead and give it to her daily.
Since she is only ten months old and her knees aren't that bad, that wouldn't be causing her limp. That would be something you would see over time as joints degenerated from abnormal stress.

Hopefully your regular vet will have some answers for you.
