Kira with a broken bone

October 20, 2005 Posted by mitch | dog | 0 Comments

I came from work tuesday to find kira waiting to be let inside by the back door. She was shaking and holding her right rear foot off the ground... Wondering how bad she hurt it this time I let her in and watched her walk around... She wouldn't put any weight on it at all, and being as mellow as she was, it must have hurt. Wednesday morning she was still not putting any weight on it, so I took her to the Vet that afternoon... After the x-rays, the doctor found a broken bone in her toe. Shes got her leg wrapped up in a splint and shes supposed to have it like that for 3 weeks. I don't know how well this is going to work. Especially when she starts feeling better. Its going to be all we can do to keep that splint on her for that long... With that and keeping her inside the whole time... its going to be a mess... shes hyper enough as it is... being cooped up inside is going to kill her. *sigh*
