My little girl Madison broke the same bones in her front left last year, jumping off the couch. She was at the vet, in surgery to reset the leg, and back home within 2 hours. She recovered wonderfully, although she did have to have her splint and cast for about 3 months, and another month of confinement when she first got the splint taken off. She is doing great today, her leg is just as strong as it was before the break. I am sure your baby will do just fine, just make sure to follow the exact instructions that your vet gives you after the surgery and in the months to follow. One wrong move could cause the leg to snap again. Until the bones are completely healed they are much more prone to another break. Good luck to you and your baby boy. |
