What is TPLO? Our mix chocolate lab, 11 1/2 years old, has bad back knee. It's been x rayed, 3 vets opinion, two said doesn't need surgery. Her regular vet office is the one that said she might, but they don't do it, a roving surgeon comes by, $2,500. Normally is $3,500 he said.

Not sure what "bad back knee" means. My friend's older dog was arthritic and she took her to swimming therapy and to acupuncture treatments. She thinks it added a couple years to the dog's quality of life. This assuming that "bad back knee" doesn't mean something is torn or broken.
