I am guessing that she is stage 3 or 4. How soon can the do surgery? The vet said we would visit this at a later date. Will it be ok for her to learn to walk?
Doesn't matter if the Dad or Mom do or don't have it themselves, one of them has it in their lines, and they BOTH should not be breeding if the lines are unknown, that's what responsible breeding is all about

Follow your Vets instructions, I went onto a Board Cert. Ortho Vet and that's whom I would suggest to see when it is time for surgery.
