Hey there....hope all is going ok with Peanut.
Our Snickers has/had LP and we also had surgery last Nov so please feel free to contact me with questions. We also figured Snick had it when he started lifting his leg. Our vet diagnosed Snick at a grade 3 but then specialist gave Snick a diagnosis of a 2, so be sure to see the specialist as well. We decided to go with surgery b/c we could see Snick limping/lifting often, and the lifting does indicate pain, or else the pup would not lift. Snick shakes when he is in pain, and he would shake a lot. He is doing/ recuperating post surgery very well. Colder days are harder, but he is much better. I highly recommend Glucosamine supplements!! Snick even has better days now post surgery when he regularly takes it.
Good luck hun!!!
Snick & Viv
