Sorry to hear about your baby. I took Phoebe to yet another vet because I'm trying to get the right vet for her and me. This is her third vet since October. During her initial examination unlike the other two this vet thought to examine Phoebe's good back leg being as she dorsn't have use of the other. She found Phoebe does have the patella luxation in her good hind leg. She said on a scale of 1 to 4 she is at a 2, if she moves to a 3 she will need surgery otherwise she could end up in a wheelchair. She put her on Dasuquin (joint health supplement). Luckily Phoebe loves them and eats like thry are a treat. They are kind of spendy at $40 at bottle but if they help her then I will gladly pay it. It doesn't hurt to get a 2nd opinion though and I would definately reccomend it. good luck. |
