| Femoral Head Ostectomy Hello, My 10 month old male yokie has been diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia on one side. A Femoral Head Ostectomy has been recomended by our vet. I am planning to take him to UI to see an orthopedic vet for a second opinion. In the meantime I would like to hear from owners whose Yorkies have the procedure, especially at a similiar age. |

| Welcome to YT. Sorry to hear about your baby. My Mylee had the FHO surgery 8 weeks ago for Hip Displasia as well. She was 11 months old at the time. She is going back tomorrow for her 8 week check up.

| Thanks for the reply. How is she doing? What was the recovery time \ restrictions? Mine is doing well, but I worry about the extra strain on his other 3 legs, so I am looking to have the procedure done after holidays. |
