Peg-legged Picabo
So my dog Picabo tore some ligaments away from the bone in her right foot over Thanksgiving when she was staying with my Dad (a consequence of my last minute decision to spend Thanksgiving with in Lexington). She apparently slipped when he took her walking after an ice storm.
After many x-rays, two regular vets, two types of painkillers, and a visit to a specialist, she now has a cast and if all goes well she won't need surgery. The hope is that scar tissue will build up between the ligament in and the bone.
She seems a lot happier with the leg immobilized — she's much more lively than she's been the last couple of weeks.
