I think anyone who had a pup that had the surgery could tell you that....if you could just see into the future it would be easier to decide.
That is why this is so hard- I (semi) wish she were in more pain so this would be obvious. I know that animals hide pain for as long as they can in order to not appear weak and thus, easy pray. When Layla had surgery to remove a bump on her back- they checked her teeth and she had a rotten tooth. I had NO idea- she never showed she was in pain. So for all I know this could be hurting her. She walks semi-normal. About 2 months ago she was playing ball and stopped immediately and was limping. Since then her walks have been 70% normal. Ugh, I am rambling. This is such a mental and emotional struggle. I just don't want to make the wrong choice.
