[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just found out our dog needs surgery for a luxating patella. Has anyone been through this before or have a surgeon rec? Also, what's the recovery like? Thanks![/quote] Do dogs have Patellas? When the kneecap is dislocated from the groove of the thigh bone, it can only be returned to its normal position once the quadriceps muscles in the hind legs of the animal relax and lengthen. It is for this reason that most dogs with the condition will hold up their hind legs for a few minutes.[/quote]
