I wonder if Buster was misdiagnosed? We have an orthopedic vet and he diagnosed Buster with LP on the first visit when Buster was 9 weeks old. The orthopedic vet is also our regular vet and the last time we were in there he diagnosed Buster with Grade 4. Most of the time you would never know anything was wrong with him. Sometimes on his walks he will carry his leg but just for a second, I have never seen him do it for any length of time. He runs around the back yard at full speed and never carries his leg. I always thought Grade 4 needed surgery but the vet said no. He has an appointment soon for a check up so I'm sure I will get an update then.
