I am sorry to hear about your dog. Abbie has leggs perthes and had her surgery about six weeks ago. Her scar was minimal and she bounced right back. It is very important to keep up with the physical therapy as I will help them to learn to use the leg again. Abbie will always have a slight limp but other than that she should be just fine! We live in NJ and it cost about $2,500 for the surgery ( 80% was paid for by our pet insurance) Good Luck |

Recovery from surgery should be very good. A little rescue Yorkie I knew years ago recovered completely. The breeder you got this puppy fro, should be informed about this as it is genetic and any puppies from a repeated breeding of the parents will likely produce the problem again in at least one pup or possibly more. |
