So we just took Chubbs to the surgeon for his consultation and it turns out he has a torn cruciate, similar to human acl, and a lateral patellar luxation, meaning his knee cap won't stay in place. We were quoted at $2,900 for the surgery.
Our question is, should we get the surgery? Chubbs sometimes puts weight on his back leg just fine, and other times has a more noticeable limp. He's still the happy crazy bulldog he's always been.
I want to know if anyone's baby has been diagnosed with the same thing and have choose not to operate...how did it turn out? Do you regret not operating, or had everything seemed fine? We are on the fence right now due to all I've read about the surgery and still having problems down the road afterwards.
Chubbs thanks you for your input :-)
