Sorry it has been awhile. We've been working this summer and haven't had as much time to post/read the forums.
Eleanor and I were playing in the back yard this morning. She loves to sprint around and bark while I pretend like I'm chasing her. She made a cut to turn right and yelped, stopped running and started limping. We brought her in and she tried to walk but fell over.
The vet said that it didn't look like she fractured anything or tore any tendons. Rather, she "compressed" some bones in her back right leg. They are putting a splint on her and we're going to go pick her up this afternoon.
The vet said she can't play that much for about 4 weeks. We're going out to get her treats and toys.
Does anyone have any advice for how to help her get better over the next month? and how to get her energy out (she's only about 9 months old and still loves playing and taking walks) without interupting the healing process?
Thanks!
