Wow, well now I know a little more about the innerworkings of Chi's. hehe Thank you Em! Hopefully it won't get so bad that she'll require surgery at any time in the future. Though it sure might help if she'd stop jumping up on the couch and then back down again. LOL That scares me a little. I'm always afraid she'll break a leg. :/

However, it occurs in different grades, so Jaelyn's just isn't bad enough to require surgery.

The closest I've come is the vet told me Jaelyn's knees were slipping out of place? I asked what that meant and she told me that it could cause arthritis later on in life. :( Jesslan Foster Mom @ Shih Tzu & Fur Baby Rescue - http://www.stfbr.com/ Volunteer @ Chautauqua County Humane Society - http://spcapets.com/ Furever Mom To Doggy - Jaelyn Furever Mom To Kitties - Lucius, Gypsy, Kylee and Ethaniel Visit My Kitties, Doggy & Fosters - http://mdnyhtkyss.com/cattitude/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "argosy68" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 6:31 PM Subject: [Chihuahuas] Jabby-Chihuahua-Luxating Patella > Has anyone else here gone through this?
