Awww poor kiddo
I'm sorry he has to have the surgery already, but there are quite a few pups on here that have had lots of success with it, so that's a plus. I'm sure he'll feel much better after the surgery and healing are behind him. How great of your vet to take payments, you've got a good one there!
Good luck and please keep us all posted
Oh, love his name, btw, my ex MIL had a tiny little apricot-colored poodle with that name
