Treatment methods for patellar luxation in dogs:

1. The pet doctor applies force to the knee with his fingers to make the patella return to the joint socket. No surgery is required, but non-professionals should not Try it lightly so as not to aggravate your dog. If the dog's glenoid socket is too shallow or the patella ligaments are too loose, even if the patella is temporarily pushed back into the glenoid socket, the patella will still dislocate as long as the force is not appropriate.

2. You can also dig deep into the glenoid socket through surgery, fix the patella in the glenoid socket with bone screws, or tie it to the bone with artificial ligaments. This method can effectively prevent patellar dislocation.

3. In daily life, owners should also pay attention to supplementing calcium and chondroitin for dogs to avoid making dogs too obese. Also be careful not to let your dog do frequent strenuous exercise.
