He is having such problems with it and is such my little terrier dog that we have decided to do surgery on both knees. She was very thorough in going over everything and our options. While I am very nervous about this (he is just so little - 5lbs), I am completely comfortable in this decision. More so than the other vet I saw. The closer we get to the date the more nervous I get. Thanks for everyone's advice, this has been every helpful in finding a vet and asking the right questions!!!!
OHMY...hahaha I am showing my age. I just posted in response to your posts from last week.

Happy that you found a specialist and that you are happy with her.

Keep us posted on the surgery! I am sure it will go well...these little guys recover quickly!
