My puppy Dior is just about 6 months old now and has been walking really funny. We took her to the doctor and she first started with Bile Acid Test. This came back abnormal but not over 100 for either test. Today we had a neck x-ray and she has been diagnosed with Atlantoaxial Subluxation. I have read a little about this congenital disease but I don't know what to do with her. The vet says there is a surgery that they can do but its expensive. I don't care about the cost but then there is her liver problem, which were not even sure what is going on there. I don't know what to do and anything at this point will help. If anyone has gone through this or done this before please let me know!
