I'm interested in hearing what others who do not opt for surgery are doing for their dogs. Are you giving supplements to prevent issues down the road? |
In my opinion your vet is wrong many many dogs get LP surgery and go on to live much more comfortable happy years. It's not about how bad the LP is but if your dog is in pain. LP can also lead to ACL tears.
