You have every reason to be concerned. Missy is an oz less than 3 lbs at 7 months of age. She broke her front leg 7 weeks ago by jumping off of my hand just 4" off of the ground. I have been warned by my vet and the specialist who did her surgery to really try to watch her jumping. It is hard, because they are dogs, but couches and beds should be avoided. The specialist also said alot of injuries happen to these little ones from slipping on linoleum. I think that I'm going to purchase some pet stairs or ramps for Missy to get on the bed and couch. Anything to avoid having to pay 3,500 for another leg surgery. |
