And the vet I saw today couldn't do that? I'm not happy. I will buy some Glucosamine today and put London on a diet and start saving money for surgery but hopefully we will not need it. This forum is priceless and you are all angels to me.
If surgery is warrented, it should be done by an Othepedic Surgeon. Did the vet tell you what grade level LP?

Weight Management and jumping to a minimum will keep the knees from popping out.

I know that front knees can be loose on young dogs, it takes a bit of time for everything to solidify.
