I got a little 3 month old Dachshund from our local shelter that had come in with 3 broken toes. The lady who brought her in said she "found" her, but could be she owned the dog and someone stepped on her foot at her house because she said if the owner doesn't claim her, she wants her back. We thought that she was just looking for some free medical treatment. Anyway, the puppy was put in a splint for 8 weeks. It's VERY crucial that the bones are lined up perfectly before splinting. Her's was and I found her an excellent home. |
