Our vet does a ton of them and says it's great....when the dog is a candidate and there are no complications. Our dog is 15.5 and for lots of reasons isn't a candidate. Although it's touch and go here, we are medically managing him with hydrocodone, butorphanol and steroids all of which are the mainstays of treatment. Bronchodilators are also used but our dog can't use them. I'm surprised anyone did surgery on your dog before exhausting medical management options.
