The ortho specialist tried, but to no avail.
I was told that a pin in a leg like this only works in 5% of cases. |
Well....I did miss that she had that "halo" on her leg. That may have been ok..and the fact is is healing is good.
If you have any doubts though, you really should get another opinion.
As for casting, I rarely see that in dogs and they heal fine. HOpefully she will !
