 buffy age 14 in january
Hi...Saw your post and thought i would give you my two cents although if you have confidence in your vet- they should be the best to answer this...ask for a sit down and really ask the questions- danger???...pup is young- I know surgery is suppose to be better when young but also know any surgery is risky...that anesthesia is terrible and scary....ask those scary questions and get an honest opinion on Is she too young??..well you know all the risks I am sure..
My yorkie was runt too but will be 14 in January..I refused the surgery because of her age...Her problems started early but we moved to a one floor home which is still helping her now....she is in pain sometimes and takes suppliments to help her pain..Has normal checkups and her age is starting to show..Am I sorry I didn't have the surgery?...No- I do hope when the time comes and when I have to do what I have to do- it will be fast ....Hate to think of that now...
She has stomach problems now- can't eat everything and I combat that with chicken and rice or a low fat diet until well...The floating patella is still a problem but I watch her very carefully...she is a happy pup and sleeps a lot but at almost 14???...Hope I helped a little |
