Ohh Kimberly so sorry to hear about widdle Anankin! I really hope he'll be ok & his leg saved.
Not sure what a cone of silence is...like the lamp shade? Hot Rod's mom makes these wonderful softee cones: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ne-collar.html

I have an x-tra one if Bo can't get one out to you asap, just let me know...since we're in CA.

So glad you updated and so glad it isn't broke!! The orthopedic surgeon that Peyton is seeing said he will be sedated for the x ray he gets on the 30th. She said they can get much better ones done that way. It is a light sedation that they bring them out of easily. So, if they have to do that for Anakin, I'm sure he will be okay. But, either way, I am so sorry this happened. Thank God you were able to get him out right away and were able to get him to the ER so fast. Lots of hugs to you and Anakin!!!

That us so sweet of you to offer Jenny.

Seems like it would be a good thing for all of us to have on hand in case of an emergency. I might be making an order soon.

So glad to hear nothing worse than that and that's bad enough.

I'm so very sorry. I hope his little leg will be ok. It must have been awful for you to find him like that. Sending him our prayers.

Perrella · 03-22-2011, 03:35 PM

I posted a review of an xpen a while back where the same thing almost happened to Teddy. I no longer trust these at all! Praying for Anakin.

Bitsy · 03-22-2011, 04:05 PM

Which x pen is this?

Mom to Hot Rod · 03-22-2011, 04:06 PM

Kimberly, I am so sorry to see this. You must be beside yourself. Hope Anakin feels better quickly.

I have soft cones in a tiny size that I can get out to you asap. I will pm you.

Hugs,
Bo

Prayers for your little one to heal very soon

teacup0819 · 03-22-2011, 06:07 PM

Kim....I just saw this and am happy to hear that his leg isn't broken. Thank goodness he still had a pulse in that leg and you were able to get him loose from the xpen. You were so smart to rush him right into the ER for xrays. Hopefully he meds he is on now will help with the pain and swelling and that will be the end of it.

Give Anakin a big kiss from Trixie.

We will keep him in our prayers for a speedy recovery.

KimberlySRN · 03-22-2011, 08:37 PM

Thank you so much everyone!

Than you Jenny for your kind offer, Bo just happened to have Anakins size and we will get it set out tomorrow.

Update : anakin has been out of it all day, I've been trying to keep him quite so he can rest. He has had one dose of each medication and has tolerated it so far. His sister Bella is not to happy about being with out him but Anakin has been resting and keeps following me around (even more then usual)
I had to go by the store and when I came back he was running around finally putting weight on his rear leg... Which he hadn't been doing before. I am having someone watch him til I can get the collar to stop him from licking his leg. I am so happy he is using his leg and I hope he continues to get that leg stronger.

Baroness · 03-22-2011, 09:25 PM

Saying some prayers that all is ok with Anakin's footsie...I'm so sorry that happened to y'all...

linda44 · 03-23-2011, 02:23 AM

Oh Kim, Im sorry Anakin hurt his leg. Sending prayers he heals quickly. Please give him a kiss from all of us.
