I am so sorry to hear about Melot, I am glad he seems to be recuperating well.
We had a black pomerainan that 5 years ago that broke his leg when he jumped out of my daughters arms onto the patio. I don't know who was crying louder my daughter or the dog
He had a lime green cast on for about 7 weeks and learned to run very well on 3 legs.
The bounce back pretty quickly.
Melot is a cutie and I love his name
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
