My little Gizmo is 9 months as well and was diagnosed at around 6 months of grade 1 in one of his back legs. He would occasionally jump off the couch and yelp, I would massage his leg for a couple seconds and off he would go to play. My vet told me to wait to do anything because he could grow out of it as he got older. This was just 3 months ago, and I have seen a vast improvement as he's had no episodes in over a month. I give him extra omegas and a glucosamine supplement once a day and it seems the vet might have been right, as Gizmo is doing amazing. :-) I would definitely get a second opinion, especially if your pup is not even showing any signs of LP. |
