My 6.5 yr old lab has just been diagnosed with LP. I was also told today that he has hip dysplasia on one hip, arthritis in the other, a cataract on his right eye along with cherry eye and has lost vision in that eye(he will also need a surgery to tack the inner eyelid down and remove the cataract). I received one quote from a doctor in richmond va for $4500, just for the LP surgery. Which I cannot really afford, however I will call around and see if we can find someone a little cheaper. Anyone have any suggestions? I want to do whats best for him but do not want to put him through anything that will make him feel more discomfort.
