Thanks for that advice, gesic

Today she hasn't limped at all, but then she hasn't jumped off the furniture today so that is probably why!

She doesn't seem to be in any pain with it, even when it goes out and is all floppy she doesn't cry or anything. I just don't want to leave it and she goes lame, but the vet more or less just left us to decide, which doesn't really help us to make a decision. This is the first time we've owned a dog and we love her dearly, we just want to do what is best for her and don't want her to undergo an operation unnecessarily if the condition is going to right itself without surgery.

If anyone has anything further they could add about this, I would be very interested to hear your views.

Thanking you in advance
