& again that's why I am here for a better alternative.
That's exactly what my vet told me to do surgery for my rescued dog. Cut the edge and rejoining. He did few times to other dogs before, and so far the dogs could walk and run like normal.

I trust him because he did good job for all my furkids from spaying, neutering, cure food posion, give birth surgery, remove tumour, skin problem, etc.
