Broken leg Hello everyone , mi name us Gabi and my yorkie is 5 months old she is very cute and her name us lollipop , today my 3 years old son was playing with her and be left her on the floor very fast and after that she start limping from her right back leg, I took her right away to the vet and they made an X-ray for her, and she has a broken leg, the vet told me that he has to do a surgery .. I thought that is too much, do you thing is necessary to do a surgery for a broken leg? She looks very sad and she doesn't want to eat |
Yes surgery can be necessary for a broken leg. My mom had a yorkie who's leg got broken. She had to have surgery. |
Please keep us updated on the surgery. When is it scheduled? |
so sorry this happened they are very fragile at a young age. hope she does well with surgery and recovery. keep us updated and welcome to yt!! |
Yep, surgery is most likely unavoidable. My brother in law's older dog- Cabo (a Brittney Spaniel) broke his leg by jumping off of the VERY small step on his deck (after having done it HUNDREDS of times!) when Cabo was just a pup- 5 or 6 months. He needed surgery and a pin placed in his leg. He has healed beautifully and now, serveral years later, there are no ill effects. |
I really can't imagine any alternative to a broken leg but surgery. Hopefully others will come on regarding a broken leg and can advise based on experiences. I'm sure it depends on the type of break, etc., but I know nothing about broken bones. I know these little ones are so fragile, it would be so easy for them to be injured with small children, who are known to be rough being such a young age. I'm sure he loves her to pieces but they will need strict supervision when they are together...well, at least util they both grow up.:D She likely is not eating due to the broken leg and may be in pain. Sending prayers for your pup and hope her recovery is successful. |
Poor baby sorry that happened, sending prayers your way. |
I'm so sorry that happened to your baby. If the vet recommends surgery, I think it's probably what is best. Praying for Lollipop's speedy recovery! |
Thankyou so much for all kindest love you've send us, this morning I'm taking her to another vet, so I can have a second opinion , she's very small, and I'm afraid to do a surgery for her, I normally don't leave lollipop with my son alone but it happens so quickly I barely has time to tell him to leave her ... I couldn't sleep last night I know she's in pain |
That poor little one. I hope her appt goes well Please keep us updated. |

Sending prayers for Lollipop. I hope the surgery goes well. |
Today she woke up, and she was walking normally , I mean not 100%normal but she was walking , and using both legs , I found that pretty strange , tomorrow is the surgery , but why is she walking now? |
She probably figures she has no choice even if it's painful. Is she shaking/shivering at all? Good luck on the surgery tomorrow ~ will send up a prayer :) |
My YT very active too, actually I'm constantly worried if she will hurt / injured herself. Just gotten YT for less than a month, still not used to her mini small size :( |
No she isnt shivering or shaking!! She is such a strong girl!! Thankyou so much for all your prayers!!! |
Lollipop will be in my prayers, speedy recovery for her! Take care. |
You know furqueen , I'm still adapting, the all family actually to her mini size , she is 5 month old and she weigh 1,4kg ( 3 pounds) and we have 2 more dogs but they are very big ! |
We are on the same boat haha Quote:
Oh you have other big dogs, are they getting along well with lollipop? My toy poodle is 5.3kg, yet he is very afraid of this mini size new pup, I wanted to laugh :D |
Actually I have lollipop since 1 a week and a half ago, that's why I was so nervous about her leg , I didn't let my dogs together alone yet , I have a English bulldog he is Veeery cute and calm , and a rescue female dog is a mix , when she arrived home they both smell her and that's it , Lollipop was a bit scare about Rocco (englishbulldog) face but I don't know how it will be the transaction after the surgery and when everything came back to normal |
Our little boy, Bryer, broke his front leg at 5 months old. The fracture was at the "elbow" high on the leg near the shoulder. It was necessary to attach a tiny titanium plate with screws and pins. Keeping him crated for 6 weeks after surgery was one of the toughest parts of the ordeal from my perspectiive. He did not have a cast on his after surgery, it was wrapped with gauze and tape so we had to make sure No running, jumping, climbing, etc etc. The broken leg ordeal was 1 1/2 years ago. The encouraging news for you is that today he is the most active and energetic among our 4 Yorkie furr babies. A complete recovery was realized.... it just took lots of time and $$$ money...... Best of luck to you and Lollipop |
Good luck to you and Lollipop tomorrow. Keep us updated |

My thoughts are with sweet Lollipop this evening. Sending prayers.for a in eventful surgery tomorrow and a steady recovery. Zhoie had major surgery last year and it required 12 weeks of confinement. It's so hard when they start to feel better and want to be more active...but keep in mind...you hold the key to their recovery. .Don't let those pleading eyes make you cave, do exactly as the surgeon. Will check back tomorrow to see how things are going.:ghug: |
