Just got a call from the surgeon. Mavericks surgery went well! I had him take xrays of his hips too, and it's confirmed that he does have mild hip dysplaysia. Which isn't much of a surprise to anyone, but still hurts my heart.
The breeder had gotten back to me and confirmed that the parents are OFA certified, and that nothing has turned up in any of the moms or dads other litters. She's very concerned and asked me many questions. We had taken extra care of our little pup, from the best nutritious food, to no jumping off anything higher than the couch, etc.
I feel fairly sad about this whole ordeal, and I just want to give my dog the best life he can possibly have
