The new vet suggested to wait a couple more weeks to see if she improves on her own and it heals up. If she's still not walking well on it by a couple weeks we will go back for x rays to see how bad off it is and then consider a date for surgery. Please pray that she does improve and that at least for now surgery won't be neccessary. I am aware that in the future she will only get worse and will most likely need surgery to fix her LP in the long run. We will make the best possible choice we can for Sadie and are willing to do whatever it takes to secure her knees and make her pain free and comfortable.

Pray for us please. It's rough to have this hit us so early in her little life.


If the cost of spaying and puppy shots was included, the Banfield program wasn't too bad. Spaying would have cost over $200.00. Did the doctor say what grade of LP? I'm so sorry Sadie has to go through this, sending prayers your way.
