Can anyone advise as to what is a good supplement for a luxating patella? My little 5.5 Yorkie, Spencer is now 10 yrs. old, has suffered from this problem since he was a young "kid" & now it is worse & he favors it quite a bit (I do not/will not have surgery done & I don't want him to be put on steroids). Any advice anyone can give would be appreciated.

I also have a 3.6 Yorkie, Zoe, almost 3. She does not have this problem so far and, hoping she never does, but should I put her on the same supplement as Spencer?

Thanks.
