Last year i won a Pet Idol competition in my local paper, and won a years supply of dog food which mummy gave to a dog rescue because i didnt like it :) I love meeting other small dogs and love going to golders hill park its one of my fave parks :D My Blog 26 Feb 2008 10:24 whereby her knee was dislocating, only occasionally, but me and my vet decided that it had got to the point where she was going to benefit from the surgery anyone else who might be going through the same or for anyone whos looking to buy a toy breed and can be passed down, dogs with a patella luxation should never be bred from, and in my opinion if you are considering breeding your toy dog you should have your bitch and dog tested for this condition. was about 6 months old, and my vet referred us to a specialist and they graded the knee as 1 (there are 4 grades, with 4 being the most serious) at that time there was no benefit to be gained by having the surgery which involved making a groove in her femur so the patella could sit in the correct place, but early this year i noticed her limping a little more often and back to the vets we went, her leg was subsequently graded as a 2 and we were advised surgery would now be an option which we could do now or anytime in the next year or so for it to be successful. hard leaving her to be taken to the orthopedic vet in London by my vet as he was supposed to come to my practice but couldn't at the last minute. did wonder more than once if i made the right choice to put her through this, my vets were great and kept ringing up to check on her and answering all the questions i had. After 2 days we went into the vets to get her dressing changed and so they could check her, 10 days after and her incision had completely healed, and now we are on weekly appointments to check her progress - they expect her recovery to take 6-8 weeks. Chrondroitin and Glucosamine Joint supplements and they still expect her to get arthritis in her affected leg just later in life than if she hadnt had the operation. her lines and continues to breed [:(] i would love to see the KC bring in some sort of compulsory testing for this condition - hopefully it would save alot of pain and money for the dogs and people who buy puppies from these people a "Braveheart" award for being such a brave patient, and they have her pic on the wall with a description of her condition, and she got a medal and a certificate 0 Comments 28 Jan 2008 21:34 0 Comments 12 Aug 2007 00:46 0 Comments My Message Wall   23 Apr 2008 08:28 Hi Twiglet, I hope you had fun at the park? Mummy keeps saying that I am going for my 'gilry operation' next week. She says I'll be ok but we are both a bit worried. Are operations really that bad? The general aneasthetic sounds really scary. Minnie x 07 Apr 2008 10:06 Hi Twiggy, Did you have a nice weekend? Was it too cold for you to go to the park or did you venture out? I was out with Mummy and my big sister Bingkey to a doggy meet up at Battersea Park. We are members of 4/5 different dog walking group but this was out first meet up. It went really well, the weather held out nicely on Saturday. I was a chilyl chi on Sunday though! What do you make of the snow?
