Achilles will be 14 months on the 29th nad the vet has suggested I have his hips xrayed now instead of later. We aren't sure we'll ever breed him, but he's only SV papered so he has to have the registered x rays blah blah blah (again, slim chance we'll breed him).
The vet suggested doing the x rays now just in case there is a problem b/c treatment options are available. So I made an appt for June 6th.
They want to try to do the x rays withotu putting him under if possible, but I don't see this happening. He isn't going to lay still on his back for anyone...suggestions? He also needs his nails trimmed BADLY so I've asked for htat, and he's having his shots.
Do I need to do the x rays now? Should I try to get the PennHip certified vet to do them instead? Any info is appreciated!
