The surgery works 90 percent of the time not sure where you got your info from but I did a crazy amount of research and many many places said 90% is successful. Also I would never let a regular vet tell me weather my dog need LP surgery but go to an orthopedic surgeon. Most of the yorkies on here who have had the surgery have been successful.
