| Holy Moly Patti! $2,600+.................oh my. Toby and I are going to have to have a little talk about him behaving himself and how that will save mommy LOTS of money if he does what he's told (yeah right!) I have to admit though, he's already got the hang of waiting at the top of the stairs so I can carry him down. Thank goodness it won't be permanent but I think he's loving all the extra attention. I have a good vet for him and she even said to make surgery a very last resort and that he should be fine. I just want to get as educated about it as I can so I know what signs to look for and watch for. This site is the best thing that ever happened to me from day one when I brought Toby home. My husband is finally realizing YT'ers know what they are talking about! I'm sure some of you have had a spouse that has said "he'll be fine.........just give it a couple days." He's now changing his tune and I'm loving it! LOL

| my little Dori has LP too and she has been limping so we took her to the vet and he said she is a grade level 2 on her right foot but the vet did not give me anything to give her, he pretty much did not think it's a big deal but I can't watch her anymore it hurts me! Should I go back and ask him to prescribe me something for her? |

| In my personal opinion, yes I would go back and ask for an anti-inflammatory. Had my vet not prescribed anything for Toby, I would have asked if there was something she could give him for the inflammation. My vet did blood work before prescribing anything (Rimadyl) to make sure it was alright for him to take that medication. She was very thorough.
