Please Help! I just barely got my dog Jackson about two weeks ago. His previous owners abandoned him so im still getting used to his habits. Today I left to do some stuff and was gone for about 5 hours. When i got home he had jumped out of my two story bedroom window and i think he has broken his leg but not sure. Can someone help me?! |
You better get him to a vet asap. You never know what other internal injuries he could have. btw how did he get out of the window. I hope you don't tell me you left a window opened at the bottom. |
Hopefully you've been to the vet by now and Jackson is all okay? |
Did you not confine him since you could'nt watch him. Hopefully you got him to a vet...hope he's ok. |

He is also more than likely in shock....please get him to a vet.....Hopefully all he has is a broken leg...... |
Years ago when we adopted a GS who was an agility dog who had jumped from a 2 story window. He had broken his leg and had internal injuries. Thank goodness he survived for us to be able to adopt him. My first question to the past owners was do you not have screens on your windows? Please take this little one to ER vet right away. If a large agility trained GS could sustain that many injuries from this kind of fall think what your little one could be suffering. |
Oh no...this poor baby, I hope has been seen and is going to be ok. Sending prayers do this little one. |
Thanks everyone for your help. I tried to get him into the vet but i live in a very small town and our vet is out of town until tomorrow. He has been lying down all day and seems to be getting better. When i touch his leg he doesnt whine or yell until i touch his foot. My neighbor said that he saw him jump and that he hit my awning before falling to the ground. My window had a screen on it but he must have pushed it out. I have tried just letting him be and have stayed by his side every second but he wont eat or drink anything im not sure what i should do. Also someone told me to give him a baby aspirin but im not sure if that will hurt him or not :confused: |
Is this the vet that's out of town? If so the link provided is for another vet - the webpage mentions they service your area. You really need to find a vet for Jackson, the sooner the better. Hopefully nothing is broken and possibly meds, and rest will be all that's needed. Hedelius, Robert DVM - Ephraim Veterinary Clinic (435) 283-4853 400 S Main St, Ephraim, UT 84627 Home |
I wouldn't give him any aspirin. If he does have an internal injury it could make any bleeding worse:eek: PLEASE get this little one to a vet quickly. Better safe than sorry. Him not eating and drinking is a definite sign that he's in pain:( |
the one in ephraim does not have an xray so he wont take him. The one in mt pleasant is the one i usually go to in emergencies for my other dogs and he is out of town. I have called every vet within a 50 mile radius and none of them are open or will take him. He has started becoming really disoriented and falling over alot. I'm really scared and noone can help him. |
I'm sorry.:( Just find the closest ER even if it if three hours away. If he is out of it, that is a very bad sign. he could pass overnight. ?he has to be seen immediatey. |

I cannot imagine not going any distance if my furkid was suffering. Please, please go wherever you can to get him help! Waiting till your vet opens could cost him his life.:( |

His symptoms are critical & he needs to be seen ASAP. You need to call other vets, you may have to drive 75 to 100 miles but he's got to go to a vet ASAP as he may be too far gone by morning or possibly pass in the night. Please update as soon as you can as we all worry about others pups too. Oh & Welcome to YT, wish it were under happier circumstances. I will be Praying for your pup. |
any updates? any updates? worried about the dog |
your dog needs to see a vet asap even if you drive hrs to get there, if you dont you may not have a dog, he does not need to suffer |
Hey everyone the reason i hadnt taken him to a vet farther away is because my car recently broke down so i had no means to take him besides my mother and she wouldnt drive me no matter what i said. However i did take him to the vet bright and early this morning. The doctor took x rays and he broke his left back leg and sprained the other 3 he said he didnt think that he had any internal injuries but i am taking him back tomorrow. He is also on medications and has started to return to the dog i know and love. Thank you all so much for your support and know that i love my dog more than anything and so glad that he is safe. We are spending the day relaxing today :) thanks again |
You must have been so scared! I am sorry that you did not have appropriate support at home during this ordeal, but so thankful that it all turned out well. I will pray for your puppy's complete recovery. |
Thank you so much Blessedbee and everyone else who had encouraging statements. He is on the road to a full recovery. But he sure is mad at me for putting him in a full body cast, he growls at me everytime he sees me. But i know in my heart is going to be ok. I love my animals more than anything and wish i could have taken his place. Thank you again for your support during this terrible time. |
I'm glad you got him to the vet. I'm sorry to hear that he broke his leg, but it's good that you got him in. Hopefully he heals up quickly! |
Glad to hear that he is going to be ok. God bless. |
Hey everyone just an update. I took Jackson to the vet again today and the vet has decided that surgery will be the best route to take because his fracture in his one leg is in all four toes and because he is so old they dont want to cause him any more complications. Please pray that he makes it home safely Thanks again |
Prayers for Jackson for a successful surgery. When are they doing the surgery? |
Prayers for a quick and successful surgery! Poor little guy has been through a lot! |
