I was an x-ray tech for 20 years, and I've seen breaks in the growth plate before. It does not mean that there is absolutly no hope,honest! She could go on to be just fine. She sounds like a tough little cookie, and you are probably hurting more than she is right now! With all of her YT friends praying for her I'm sure she'll be ok!

My gosh, that was so nice to hear that from you. I think one of the reasons I was so upset is my vet was telling me all the things that could be wrong and did not really say that she could be alright just that they would try to help her. Do you think that her bones will heal without pins and plates? I have seen success stories on the internet with similar injuries as hers but with much larger and older dogs, most also had pins put in.
I do not think this is going to hold her back to much as she has so much spirit. Every night around 10pm she runs around the house like a banshee, playing and barking and having fun. The night it happened she just cuddled, it was sad not to see her playing as she always does. But last night she was almost back to her old self running around and playing, three-legged. It was hard to try and get her to take it easy.
Thanks so much Teri88
