Pixie, 4 1/2 at the time, had Grade 3 in one knee and grade 2 in the other. She walked off the bed and I ended up having surgery on the grade 3. She did not do well with the knee popping out so I had 4 opinions before I had the surgery. A few years ago it cost 2500.00 for one knee by an orthopedic surgeon. Now my Cali has grad 4 in both knees, is almost 8 years and has done well with out the surgery. My vet said she may never need surgery and we will just keep an eye on it. Make sure you limit Freedie's jumping. I use ramps for mine.
