Yep, surgery is most likely unavoidable. My brother in law's older dog- Cabo (a Brittney Spaniel) broke his leg by jumping off of the VERY small step on his deck (after having done it HUNDREDS of times!) when Cabo was just a pup- 5 or 6 months. He needed surgery and a pin placed in his leg. He has healed beautifully and now, serveral years later, there are no ill effects.
