Its good to hear that you do your part of the research too. alot of people don't and they have no clue what is going on. they either do whatever the vet says, so don't do any of it.
with my vet, any dog that comes in with sudden leg problems which look like hip or knee problems, teh dog is given a pain med and lots of rest for a while before taking another look at the problem somewhere done the line. The last thing he wants to do is jump into surgery when it can be taken care of other wise.
