Harvey
Well-known member
I am so distraught and dont know what to do - My puppy Harvey was on the bed with me this morning for are morning cuddle, I got up to go to the bathroom leaving him still curled up on the bed. All of a sudden i heard a thud and Harvey started screaming!!! I ran to him he was holding his right back leg up - I straight away called our emergency vets trying to explain to the lady on the phone what had happened (not that she could really understand me through my crying on the phone) on her advice i rushed him to the Animal Hospital, they examined him and said they wanted to X-ray and that i had to leave him
They called two hours later to explain that he has fractured his tibia and needs to have a cast for a few weeks and that not to worry he should be fine and grow normally and that it was a fairly straight forward fracture.
I miss my baby so much i feel ill, i'm not allowed to collect him until Monday evening after he's seen the main vet.
Can anyone tell me about the cast he has to have?? Will he still be able to go to the toilet, walk etc etc
I have no idea how this will effect him for the next few weeks???????
