Basset with elbow dysplasia surgery

I've been searching around and reading threads like this, as my 8 month old female, Bailey, has kind of a wonky right front leg, and I was wondering if it's a major issue. We noticed her limping, favoring the right leg, early on, but she's still able to run and jump and do all the normal Basset things. I completely understand that when dwarfism is bred into an animal, deformities can be pretty common.

My question is, does this look like something Bailey (and we) will be able to live with, or are we looking at problems and/or surgery down the road.

(Bonus 4 month cutie-pie picture, just 'cause)

Here she is standing, sitting and kinda walking. As you can see, the left front is relatively straight, pointing only slightly outward, whereas the right front is markedly crooked and pointing more sharply outward.

When we first noticed the limp we had our vet check her out. He found some tenderness and guarding in her right shoulder and prescribed Anti-Inflams, which reduced the limp after a couple of days.

She was fine until she grew some and we noticed the crook. She sometimes limps. Sometimes doesn't. Usually right after she wakes up and when she's been exerting herself (She and the cat love to chase the red dot). Sometimes she'll even spin out on the right leg, while doing a drift around a corner. No real indications of significant pain, and the limp can come and go.

She is still young, so her chest hasn't filled in yet. We did get her spayed at 6 months. Why would that amplify any genetic issues? Or is it a hormonal thing? In any event, she's smart as a whip. Was housebroken in a couple of weeks. Learned to "sit" for treats in a few days. We wouldn't give her up for the world, just want to know what we can do to limit any discomfort, especially as she ages.
