Unlove 3 month old Puppy is in a leg cast :(

Hello all,
I'm new on here, this is my first post. My fiance and I got a Yorkie puppy about a month ago, and she is the love of our lives! Last night, about 2 am, she jumped off of my couch (which she has done about a million times so far) and yelped and cried, pulling her front left leg up towards her. She didn't walk on it at all last night, even though it didn't seem swollen to me. Since it was so late, I waited until the morning to see if she felt any better. She was the same/if not worse this morning so I brought her to the vet. They gave her an x-ray and she broke 3 of her toes They put her in a splint and wrapped it up. Since she is so small (only 2 pounds) this "cast" is HUGE! She can barely walk, and seems so sad. I was told to go back in a week to have the dressing changed, and she will be wearing this about 2 weeks. They gave me strict rules on no playing, jumping, walks, etc. Since she is so young, thats all she wants to do! My heart is breaking for her! Is there anything anyone may suggest to help me keep my little Charlie girl as happy as possible for the next 2 weeks?? Thank you!
