[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 167621"] We have a young dog and I had a similar surgery done for her last summer. We tried other things first and it didn't help. It was well worth it. She was in a LOT of pain and was paralyzed. Sniff. She has heeled well, knock on wood and thanking all... We have an older dog that was hit by a car TWICE. He has a very bad hip. He does not seem to be in pain. We have not done surgery for him. We have even heard talk of amputation. Should he have pain, we would probably try anti-inflamatories. All these things are very difficult decisions to make. I have heard Chondroitin, glucosomine, depending on the situation, can be very helpful. I am thinking of giving it to our old dog. As a side note...does any of the dog food have this in it? Do they actually make this supplement for dogs? If you have to get this surgery...get one of those credit cards with frequent flier mile deals, etc. Wishing you well with your pet and your decision. [/QUOTE]
