Hip Dysplasia and FHO surgery in Yorkies Hi,
I posted somewhere about my Lily limping now and again. I took her to the first vet in Hawaii and they told me it's mild LP and she was not in pain or anything. Might even grow out of it.
We it got worse as time went on so I asked my new California VET to look at her. They did e-rays and showed my that little Lily had all but no hip joint on her left and a misshaped femur head which was causing her a great deal of pain.
Got a 2nd opinion and then did the FHO Monday. I would like to hear from anyone who has seen this in Yorkies.
I'm upset that my breeder didn't really do a health check even though she certified the dogs health. I'm also upset that vet one didn't even check for this and I let Lily remain in pain thinking it was just a slipping knee.
She is doing OK after surgery, even though this wia the 2nd worse day of her life Monday of course the worst day ever. She started taking water and ate a little chicken just an hour ago.
