Was she diagnosed with LP? Did they give you what grade it was? My Mikki has LP and she is a grade 3. We recently had a scare with her. I think as time goes on, LP can get worse. And can lead into surgery. Yes, it can be very painful for them. They are tougher than you think. Mikki's recent incident I would not have known she was hurt if she hadn't been limping. She never made a sound. Just kept her one leg up and limped around. You need to take her in to the vet and discuss LP and what her options are.

Some suggestions:

1. Minimize all jumping ( which is hard to do)
2. If you have doggie stairs use them for her to get up and down on beds, couches, etc.
3. Find out if there is any meds you can get for her until the vet can determine if surgery is needed.

I know there are more. Maybe some others can think of some things for you to do.
