See what the vet says. Sounds like he might have a torn CCL (ACL in people). If he does, he WILL need surgery. It's very expensive and ideally should be done by an ortho specialist.
Yorkie are prone to knee issues. I have been through it so many times.
If you ignore it, he will eventually use it but that does NOT mean it got better. They learn to acclimate to it; but they then have a very unstable knee and will have problems in the future with the meniscus and other things.
Not trusting vets is a dangrous thing.........if you are not happy with who you go to, find another. If he/she says he has a torn ccl, go to a specialist for a second opinion.
Good luck today! |
