| Found out last week that Bux has... Luxating Patella.... I'm always worried now b/c he likes to jump up and down off of anything and everything.... They said it was only the minor case of it, but that he has it in both knees....do ya'll think I should contact his breeder and let her know? |

| Sorry to hear about Bux! If I were you, I would let the breeder know, not as a complaint, but most breeder's would want to know these things ... I know mine would! Meantime, I would make sure that everywhere he has the habit of jumping up ... sofa, bed, chair, etc. ... that he had something there as a little booster so that it wouldn't be such a hard "landing" when he jumps back down. Hope he does well and it doesn't get any worse! Puppy kisses from Toto!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I agree with Bettyanne - your breeder would WANT to know ...unless she knew it already - but this is something they can control on their end when breeding - poor baby - at least it's mild ! |
