oh my that xray looks just like Jess and like yours at 11 months old jumped off the couch arm onto tile..(January)
We did the stupid cast, which was a total mistake. It cost us time..
They wanted to amputate, I said no way and found a wonderful surgeon. He did bone grafts and plate for about 3400.00. (I also replaced my vet after, other vets were appalled they even tried a cast)
She is totally healed, even the ulna, which the surgeon didn't even expect.
Its a really long haul. She lived in a crate for 8 weeks, hardly moved. We sedated her when she was antsy, played mind games with her and basically floated her around the house. Then it was two months of slow building rehab. Please message me if you want details. The xray is totally the same...........................
