I agree with ladyjane, even if fife or shaff were able to get the surgery I'm not certain I would do it. Fife had 2 hip replacements and surgery on his grade 4 lp before he was two, the surgery for ct is less than a success, at best, and most of the time the dog needs to stay on steroids the rest of his her life, that is less than ideal, it's hard to keep a dog on steroids not to want to over eat or drink. Steroids worked miracles for fife but I would not want to be on long term. |
