Destino's Story

This chihuahua named Destino is looking straight at the camera while sitting on top of a brown couch. He has suffered from Luxating Patella after going through an unlucky jump.

Destino the Chihuahua mix has an unlucky jump.

Vet Bill: $1,669

Background

Destino became suddenly lame after a jumping down from the couch one day. Afterwards he began to favor his left leg. His veterinarian performed a thorough exam and determined that Destino not only had a grade 3.5 out of 4 patellar luxation in his left knee but a grade 2 out of 4 patellar luxation in the right as well.

Surgical correction of Destino's left leg occurred first, then the right leg two years later. Destino is surely getting around much better after suffering from the genetic condition!
