Luxating Patellas Hello, I have a 12 week old puppy that just got a vet check, and the vet said that one knee was loose. She couldn't get it to go out of socket or anything. Both of the parents checked out fine before they were bred, and this breeding won't be repeated. She said she didn't know of any studies had been done tracking cases like this in young puppies to see if it turned into a luxating patella, and couldn't really tell me if it would get worse. She said it may tighten up on it's own. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience in any cases like this. Whitney |
Hi and Welcome to YT Many, many, many, many of us (myself including) are dealing with Luxating Patella. My advice is to do a search here on YT for: Luxating Patella You will find many great thread, so much info your brain might explode...just kiddin' - but seriously - there are lots and lots of LP kiddos around here :D |
Well, a long time ago I had a little chihuahua that the vet told me the same thing about one of her knees. Nothing ever happened and she was fine for the rest of her life and never had any problem jumping or anything at all.:) |
just thought i'd bump this up for you. |
