I feel your pain......our dog had to have both her rear knees redone at the age of 4 and the other at 5 and the vet bills were unreal but these little creatures become part of the family so we do what we gotta do!! Shes now 10 and still cruisin but her rear hips and knees are failing and its killing me

.Our kids are 6 and 3 and Jacki is a huge part of their lives and it scares the crap out of me knowing that the fatefull day will come.Till then we will enjoy her company till shes leaves us for a better place!!!
