I haven't heard of another breed of dog that breaks legs as frequently as the Italian Greyhound. Knock on wood, I haven't had to experience a break yet, but I have a little doggie splint here. It would be too big, as is, for Liz, but it can be cut shorter. Also, there is what is known as the death scream in IGs, that really makes you believe they have broken a leg, and usually they have.
