Squid Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 Good to hear that the pup is on the mend Glen.
specktacklure Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 I have a 9yr old boxer same kinda story .He was hit when he was around a 1yr old.Driver didn't stop as well .The vet said we would have to amputate his leg because of his fractured elbow but 8yrs later he walks with a bit of a limp but he still has the old leg and he is just fine.Good on you for spending the money to rehab ( i know it's not cheap ) and you will be surprised how well he recovers and gets along.good luck
GbayGiant Posted December 9, 2006 Report Posted December 9, 2006 I have a cat that got hit by a jeep at 1 year old and ended up with a paralyzed left front leg, we decided to leave in on and she has benefitted from it ever since she uses it as a crutch and still climbs trees and gets mice at 15 years old. It might be different for a dog but I would give it as much time as you can before deciding to amputate because he might do better with the leg. I hope I'm not the only guy that watches the Oprah show but has anyone seen the dog missing both his front legs that walks like a person ? anyway that dog looks like the happiest dog alive, I think it's tail moves so fast that it levatates. I hope your dog pulls through, lives a happy life and inspires people to try harder.
