Thanks Carol Jean for sharing your experience with this injury. I have Ellie crated and am trying to keep her quiet. My problem is that she does not seem to be in any pain. She actually wants to play, run around the house (even if it is on 3 legs), etc. So now I am just keeping her in the crate as much as possible.
I also want to explain my ER visit. I went to this Hospital because an ortho surgeon practices there. I couldn't get an appt. with him for 10 days so I went in as an emergency. The ER doctor did the intial exam, but then took Ellie and the Ortho surgeon examined her also.
I am still doing my research on the internet and calling other doctors to get a second opinion. Ellie is only 1 and weighs only 3 lbs. so I really want to carefully consider all the options before I put her thru an operation.
I welcome any more comments and suggestions. Thanks.
