 Koda broke his leg (growth plate)
My poor baby. On the 15 of June Koda was sitting with us on the front porch. Well Mr. Daredevil himself decided to jump off of it. Our porch is only 24 inches where he jumped from but that was all it took. And of course this happened at 10:30 pm on a Friday night. So the next morning we took him to our vet who took 4 x-rays and found he had fractured his growth plate in his front left leg. He said we could take him to a specialty hospital and have surgerey on it but it would be in the $3000.00 range. I love my baby so much, but there is no way our family could affard that. So he put a splint on Koda and said he would have to wear it for 6 weeks. He gave us more supplies to change it when it became dirty and that is a task in itself. Koda hates having it changed. But he is still in awesome spirits. The first 2 days he just wanted to lay around and rest, but after that he was back to his normal self. Playing and romping around like a nut! lol! Our internet at home hasn't been working so I haven't been able to update. I am at my Mom's and thought I would hop on here again today. Hopefully we will be back online here in the next week.
I am going to try and bring my laptop here to Mom's this weekend so I can post some pics of my little trooper and his booboo leg.
Take care everyone, and be careful sweet Yorkies!
