I thank you all for your concerns and opinions. We only have two vets in town. And like I said the specialist is over 4 hours away. Freddie was a year old Nov. 13th. So he is young and a jumper!!! I don't know how much I trust this one vet...as she just said he had bad knees, one is worse than the other and told me where the surgeon is. I need to go on his website to check him out. I believe I will try the other vet in town to get his opinion. Never hurts to get a second one. I know that Freddie is not in any pain, and I'm so thankful for that. I will keep you all informed and will definately be back with questions!
Thanks everyone!
