| Hello There, New to YT Hello Everybody, my name is Arlene and my little boy is called Rambo. I live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada. Rambo just turned 6 months old last Wednesday. In February he jumped off my knee, landed wrong on a hard floor and ended up fracturing his left hind leg. The surgeons decided instead of surgery to try keeping his leg straight and putting a splint on it and see how that went AND I was to keep him restful, no running, jumping. Yeah right!!!! 5 months old and to rest??? He used the splint to catapult himself when he was running around the house. The splint is off now as they want him to try and use the leg more so we go back on Wednesday for another X-ray and hopefully it's healing like they wanted. Wish me Luck. If not, then he will have to have surgery with plates and pins.

| Hi there! Welcome to YT!!!! Hope that Rambo heals quickly... those little guys think they are bigger than they are, which can definitely get them into trouble sometimes. I have to continuously remind my 3 not to jump off the side of the couch!

| Welcome to YorkieTalk! It is very hard to keep them calm and from not running around especially a pup. I hope that his leg healed right and will keep him in my prayers.
