Do you know of a GOOD orthopedic surgeon for dogs? General Dog Discussions
I have a friend that adopted a crippled dog from a shelter. I have decided to help them pay for surgery for the dog if it will help her. I am looking for the BEST orthopedic surgeon in the south or midwest. Can anyone give any recommendations? As this will be costly we want a recommended surgeon. Someone that knows his/her stuff.BTW the dog was not born crippled. She had a back leg broken and the people that had her let it heal without seeing a vet. Somehow it messed up her other back leg, she lets that foot drag (bent backwards) and walks on the top of the foot instead of the pads.Frankly we have decided we want a surgeon that already knows his stuff. Not a student. It may cost more but we feel she will be better off. I want recommendations from people that have had their dog (or knows a friend that had their dog) operated on. I can travel with her so location is only semi important. I prefer to keep it to the south or midwest.
