Good morning I was just reading you post about your Lucy having grade 3 luxating patella. I was hoping for some advice I have a yorkie who just turned 5 and never once did she show any signs of it until November. she ran into her food dish and flipped over she began limping took her to our vet and he said it was luxating patella probably caused by injury gave some meds and six weeks rest and she was great until wed she skid on the floor and now limped on the other leg. Took her in and she was graded 2. The original leg went to a one. He feels now that she was born with this. So more meds and one month rest. It's killing me that my baby has this. We bought steps for couch and bed and she's been using them but she would sometimes jump on or off bed it's hard to keep her from doing that. I would so much appreciate your experience with this he did not recommend surgery for her yet. But my feat is can she still run and play with this or is she going to be limited I am so scared for her. Thanks for listening
