| ![]() Today I want to the vet for a recheck . The fracture looks good ,nice and straight. it haven't heal .it will take 3 to 4 months to heal but now he have a other problem. He have a very bad case of Rheumatoid Arthritis on the same leg. we can't give him any Medications because it will stop the fracture from healing . the vet said it's a good thing we didn't amputated because soon or later the other leg will get Arthritis and with two legs he can hop from ether leg when he have pain . ![]() |

| ![]() Just reading your update. Had been wondering how it all turned out. Glad you didn't have to amputate but sorry about the arthritis. Does that also mean that you can't give him glucosamine?
