Hi
We have a 2 1/2 year old boy staff, and have been told he has this.
He is having an arthroscopy next week after 12 weeks of restricted exercise...
Does anyone have experience of the condition or the operation/recovery that they can share?

Many thanks
Jayde

Hey don't have any personal experience

But i no with elbow/hip dysplasia there are a number of things you can do to help, making sure the dog isn't carrying any extra weight, and one way to loose the weight or to give gentle exercise is to take them to hydrotherapy, it's meant to help alot with it.

Have they said how severe the ED is?

I found this link, it relates to hips but may still be of interest?

No experience here either I'm sorry. Has your vet provided you with information on your treatment option/s and recovery involved at all?
