I am so sorry your little Sandy broke his leg, but glad that the surgery went well. I am sure he will be fine after this! I have fostered three pups recently who had broken legs and all of them have recovered well!
One thing I want to caution you about is letting him sleep in your bed while this other leg is healing. If he jumps off of your bed, he is at risk of re-injuring the leg or breaking another leg! This happened to another YTer some time back....her pup broke the other front limb. When they have a broken leg already, they don't have that limb to brace them so they are jumping in an odd fashion. Please, please be very careful in letting him on your bed or other places where he could jump. I know it is difficult not to hold them and love on them when they are sick and/or injured; but we need to think about accidents! |
