Mama Doe
Just back from the vet with Floppy, after his neuter and x-rays. The poor little soul looks awful and hasn't eaten yet.
The x-rays showed his hips were OK, but on the bad leg the knee joint is fairly out of place, (was classed as a class 3 subluxation because when it's put into place it just pops out again) and the good leg is a class 1 subluxation (can be moved out easily but pops back into place itself).
An op to correct it would cost between £600 and £1000, and may leave him worse than he is now as the vet said the bone may just shatter when they try to fix it .
Anyone had any experience of a bun with this?
