Yes, my poor little baby has lived with it for 5 years and there is really nothing else to do but pray he's okay when he gets older. We tried meds to no avail and surgery was a suggestion but the vet said there's more risk to the surgery and the recovery period than just leaving him alone and living with it, which I've opted to do. He's very active with no problems, except when he gets excited or sees his leash! Thanks for asking!

I'm happy your furballs are much better too!
