Thanks for the replies! A few months back Sophie was limping and acting strange one night so we took her to the vet. We saw a different doctor than our usual one and she said her one knee was a little loose, but puppies sometimes grow out of it.
I think I'll check into a second opinion and give it a little time before deciding on surgery.
Now, some of you mentioned crate rest. The vet said I could continue to walk Sophie and that if it really hurt her she would just use three legs instead of four. Why did your vet recommend crate rest, were the symptoms very severe at time of diagnosis? And how long would it take to correct itself?
Thanks again!! |
