Did your vet advise you to give him glucosamine supplements and keep his weight down and limit his jumping? All of those things can help.
No,my vet did not reccomend any of that.She just said the he may or may not have trouble in like 10 years.Right now he's 5 months old.I thought she was a good vet,but now I'm not so sure.Why wasn't any of these things reccomended?
