Hello, Yes the vet gave Rimadyl which is anti-inflammatory. The Vet suggested drawing a blood work up ($170) then following up with taking multiple ex-rays which would require sedation. Then they will be able to do a more in-depth evaluation. Total cost $500. Yes, “ a really good opinion cost a really good price." Not all of us have the means by which to obtain the absolute best available...etc. We all do our best for our pets with the income we have. Thank you for your opinion. I’m am aware that if he doesn’t improve it could be a torn ACL. I’m hoping and praying that he gets better. If not then I will continue to do my best to provide the care that he will need.
