So sorry to hear. Hardest decision we ever had to make was to put down our dog. Vet came to the house, I was petting her and telling her how good a dog she was as she passed. Makes me cry to type this! We also spent some major bucks on an operation, but in the end this only prolonged her life a short while. She was 13, young for a Corgi.

I know it's a tough, tough, call. IF you can afford it, do the surgery. It may work out wonderfully- if it doesn't- well- you can say you did all you could for him. But, no, I would certainly NOT subject the dog to repeated operations.

May God guide you in your difficult decision!
