That is why I am asking for some advice. I call the vet office, but is midnight, and there is not answer. I went on line, and I did some research. I found out that in case of a fracture of a puppy her age, an elastic bandage is aplyed. and is supposed to be left on the leg for 15 days. The thing is, that only an hour has passed, and she is walking. Should I remove the bandages? I think she is in pain because she is being crying. Please, who ever has gone through this, let me know about your experience with this kind of situation. thanks.    | Hon, you need to take her to an emergency vet now. It's that important. A fracture is something you don't want to treat yourself. Please look for an emergency vet in your area. Also, call your vet. I know it's late, but most vets will have an after hours number to call or instructions.
