I too would wait until you saw that your baby was in pain. I had a Schnauzer that was just put to sleep last year at 13. She had lp and looked like she skipped when she ran. Never a day did she yelp because of it or act like in pain. We never got the surgery (actually our vet never even brought it up!) and she did very well all through her life. She was a very sweet dog.
