My girl Pixie had Lp surgery on both of her legs 7 years ago, hse had lost complete use of them, Then 2 weeks later she had to have one re done. The vets as far as I know do not reccomend surgery unless the knees are causing problems, however I was also told Cosequin is a wonderful thing for them, I gave that to my girl after her surgery when there was a bunch of crackling and within the first 6 weeks there was no more crackling and she is showing no signs of arthriits. You give one dose for the first 6 weeks then you half it after that. They apparently taste good too, Pixie takes them and eats them like they are a treat!!
