Thank you so much. I am going to be really stressed out tomorrow, because I drop Lola off at the vet at 6:45 in the morning, and the Dr said that he is going to try to see if setting the bone back into place without surgery is an option, or whether he will need to use a pin and a plate. If he just resets it, I will pick her up later, and he said it will take about 4 weeks to find out if that option works (he was leaning towards the surgery as a 1st option but I said if I could avoid the pin and plate I would like to. If he opts for the surgery she will have to stay there till Friday, although if she's doing really well she could possible leave on Thursday.
On the bright side, my breeder recommended this surgeon and he is a bone specialist and I am thrilled with him. He explained everything in depth, was very kind and is also extremely knowledgeable. He is located in Dedham, MA (20 minuted from Boston) and I highly recommend him if anyone needs a surgeon. His name is Dr. William Henry.
Lola was supposed the be spayed today but now that can't happen. I just ordered her some little underwear and diapers just in case! Poor little Lola, she might wind up wearing a diaper, a cast and a cone to keep her from ripping off her cast (she tries)
