I put her on Flexicose, which is a liquid glucosamine complex and she has been fine...no limping or noticeable problems. My vet told me to keep Libby skinny and she will be fine. I would not put any of my dogs through surgery unless they were in pain and it was obvious with limping, etc. Give Betty Boopster kisses from me and the girls!
Is Libby an active girl like the Boopster? Where do you get the Flexicose? Liquid might be easier to give. Betty Boop weighed in at about 5 pounds today, and I hope she doesn't grow much more. Libby sounds like she is doing so well and I'm really glad to hear it.

I can't tell you how much I love this little girl. She has brought such joy and happiness to my life. I would do anything for her and that includes spending my last dollar on her.
