Roxy broke her leg

[whomeee]

Surgery went well the pin is in place and a cast is on they want to keep her again tonight to make sure there is no swelling. I can't wait till she comes home I miss the little stinker, she is all puppy wanting to play all the time or give kisses to wake you up . Even funnier still when she is barking at the bigger dogs trying to get a toy away from them even tho they had it first lol.

Good luck keeping her calm while she heals. Stock up on good chew toys, a kong to fill with peanut butter anything to keep her occupied! She may need to stay on leash for a while to be supervised closely enough to let that little bone heal! Miss Hoppy, who broke her leg when she was about 6 months old, went through 6 casts, and at the end, they say said it had healed crooked because she kept rebreaking it (try telling a rabbit "don't stand on that leg!") and they said she might hop with a limp, but she never did, thankfully!

So glad to hear that the surgery went well. I guess you'll have your hands full trying to keep her settled down a bit. Poms just don't know the meaning of that!

Please keep her from high places!

And be sure to send some pics of that little cutie - please!!!!!

She got to come home today ya ,. The Dr. said her bones are to small they didn't have a pin small enough for her leg so they just put it in a cast, we take her back in two weeks for a check up then two weeks after that we go back for an x-ray to see how things are going. The Dr doesn't think the specialest can plate her leg because Roxy is so small but if it comes to that I'll take her to the University of Iowa and see what they say, or to Colorado. Here is a picture of Roxy with her cast it almost seems like a chore for her to carry it around right now.
