ftm 3,357 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 my pregnant cocker spaniel [hope so any way]developed a bit of a limp a week or so ago and i thought nowt of it and just gave her a few short walks a day hoping it would heal up .well i thought this is nt getting any better so off to the vets i went ,her knee cap is jumping out of its socket and needs an operation pins put in etc £1000,they cant do nowt while she is pregnant so i just have to wait ,to say im gutted is an understatment as this little dog is a fantastic worker and im told she wont be the same ever again ,it looks like early retirement for her,i cant sleep thinking why her? the vet said its very unusual for a small dog to have this problem.she checked the rest of the dog and shes fine Quote Link to post

TRF-JRs 6 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 That's crap, never easy when you lose a good worker like that. Wonder what brought it on? Quote Link to post

spec 45 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 sh**ty luck mate, gutted for you. You've got to hope for the best regardless, she may heal up really well and still be able to do some work, even if it's not as much as before. Quote Link to post

amentalcat 3 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 Sorry to hear about your little bitch - have to admit its not something that i think cockers are prone to, specially not workers, just her rotten luck. Nice to hear that she'll stay with you whatever happens,(you softy!) you never know she might still be able to go out or if not she can give loads of tips to the pups! Keep us updated of her progress, i'll keep my fingers crossed for her. Ali xx Quote Link to post
