I would be most appreciative if anyone might be able to offer helpful information regarding Legg Perthe's disease in Yorkshire terriers, or for that matter, any other breed succeptible to this disease.
My 1.5 year old Yorkie has developed bilateral Legg Perthe's disease...my vet has recommended the use of glucosamine, an anti-inflammatory agent, and we are administering physical therapy.
I have been advised that this is a somewhat unusual development for this breed to develop this bilaterally.
Again, any helpful information would be most appreciated!
