I'll ask about it when I get my puppies hip scored.

Probably not the ideal shot for elbows but everything looks alright then.<br/><br/>I had Dublin's fore limbs x-rayed when he had a limp that didn't go away. Turned out to be a thorn buried in his paw pad at a deep spot so there wasn't any visible blood or entry wound. $10 that’s a steal. I’ll ask about it when I get my puppies hip scored.

I've whined about this before.) <br/><br/>Elbows, meh... it's an extra $10 at my vet to get them done in addition, and after watching my childhood dog gimp around with a bad elbow for 16 years... ouch.
