Let me share a recent story. Someone contacted me about their chi who was having issues with her knees. A vet said it was LP and recommended surgery. He was referring this person to a regular vet who "specializes" in knees. I told him to get the opinion of a boarded surgeon and gave him some names. He ended up using one that I recommended and guess what!!! The poor pup had fluid on the knees and an auto immune disorder ( I am not sure they even know for sure what it is ... I have not seen the records so have only been going on what the owner tells me ) Bottom line....NO surgery needed!!!!! The pup is on meds and improving..........

I STILL cannot believe there was fluid on the knees and that vet didn't know it.
