I need advice. My Toby has had issues with limping for about a month now. We've taken him to the vet for x-rays, and initial diagnosis indicates either a hip injury or LCP disease. He still limps at times, but is not consistent. I want to do what's best for Toby, even if it means surgery, but when? Do I get it done ASAP, or wait?
