Our surgeon was very conservative and would only do surgery on her if she was lame.

Betty Boops bathing suit is adorable BTW.
Thanks! She likes name brands (even if they do come from Wal-Mart!)

Did Daisy develop the grade 4 in her other leg years later or did the vet just not do surgery at the same time as the other leg? Glad to hear she is doing great.
