My Ellie broke her front leg when my son was trying to take her outside. She decided that she wanted to jump out of his arms. We took her to the vet right away, and the put 2 pins in her leg, gave us some antibiotics and pain medication. She healed up fine in just a few weeks, can't remember how many. Today you can't even tell that she every broke one.
I would seek a second opinion regarding the splints. I would hate to see your baby have a limp the rest of it's life because surgery wasn't done (if it needs it). |
