The part about the blood sugar level - try posting about it in the Breeders area.

Good Luck!
Thank you for replying. I am not getting much on the subject. My vet has not seen her and her breeder did not say that her vet even said LP. She just said loose knee. I know from reading post on YT that this is common and they don't always have problems with it. I talked to my vet about it and feel comfortable this is something we can deal with.
The sugar problems concern me more. I will have to wait and see if she allows me to take her and have her spayed at my vet. I will have the blood work done then to see if that reveals liver issues.
I have sent her my terms and I am anxiously waiting a repsonse.
Thanks again!
