Smile Cranial Cruciate Repair

i HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD HUSKY WHO NEEDS THIS SURGERY. The vet said it can also heal on its own over time. Does anyone know anything about this and how much it cost them if they had it done one their dog. I have been quoted 750 and that includes everything from presurgical screening to supplies and aftercare!
Thanks! Gwen

that is an excellent price, it's usually around $1,200 to $1,500.

my little dogs problem was the ACL, which, to make it easy to understand, does almost the same thing as the CCL - they both keep the knee cap from coming out of the grooves. you can google for more technical info.

if you are not going to do the surgery then I would urge you to get him on the combo supplement - available at WM or any drug store. here is the info on it. matter of fact, even if you do the surgery I'd put him on it

Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM information and product

rest is very important during the recoup & no jumping or wheelies

my dog recovered completely with no surgery
