thats pathetic
My lab tore her ACL when she was five and we went through the same decision. We opted for TPLO, but as was previously mentioned, find someone who has done a lot of them. We took Maddie four hours south of us to a specialty clinic and we're glad we did. The hardest part is the PT that follows, as has been mentioned, but we were fortunate enough to live very close to a large body of water that we could work her out in when time came. Keeping her calm was the hardest part by far. Hutash mentioned the likelihood of the other knee going shortly after and that ultimately happened to our pup as well, although she made it almost three years before it went. The second surgery was a suture stabilization surgery due to age and she clearly did not fair as well after that one as she did with the TPLO. Might have been age, might have been arthritis, I'll never know. To this day we never regret the TPLO surgery or its cost. I believe our pup had great results with it and have since referred other friends to the same surgeon when their dogs have had ACL issues.
because dogs dont know what TPLO isQuote:

your attempt at comma use above is laughable!
Your attempt at logic is elementary
how you can have $2300 to blow on a dog yet fail to comprehend supply and demand is beyond me
you must of inherited your "wealth"
enjoy your dog, yuppie scum
Have you started crying yet?
Please continue to help me see the image of you sitting in your world, desperately seeking attention, banging on the keyboard in frustration. I still don't feel sorry for you.
then, perhaps you should explain since you keep replying to meQuote:

this is your most baffling leap: $2300 (a high price by your estimation) is promoting puppy mills (places that provide low cost, low quality, high turnover)Quote:

and you assume by price alone that people are not making informed choices about the places they go to get a dog?
you still didn't answer: what would YOU do with a loved pet that has a repairable knee problem?Quote:

how bout you naysayers do some research on how commercial dog breeding effects dogs and stop focusing on increasing your status

look at beats by dre headphones, their entire budget is spent on marketing... to influence buyers into believing it is a "high quality" product via brainwashing
same with pharma companies that spend more money advertising and marketing than research and development
a product is worth whatever somebody will pay for it, and since rich bitches be paying for dumb stuff...industrious capitalists will exploit and corrupt the marketplace
What does TPLO have to do with dog breeding and price paid? I got my dog from a rescue and paid zero, am I allowed to get him the surgery if he needs it? Or should I just shoot him if he starts limping?
oh i forgot about vanity.... other than status, vanity made your wife pay 2300
morally and ethically you are coveredQuote:

responsible breeding is a oxymoron
the dollar supersedes all other biz concerns
commoditizing an animal is wrong
that would be something someone like you would sayQuote:

have you read of the current state of the pork industry ???
you're eating literal feces
people not researching where they get their dogs is what is encouraging that nefarious shit, not high pricesQuote:

^^^^^ really
with such wild margins, impropriety becomes serious issue
