dogrunner5 2 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Hi I am looking for a bit of advice. I took posession of a new pup 4 weeks ago. She had an accident last night when playing. Not totally sure how it happened but judging by the bang sounded like she hit the trailer. I took her to the vet because she couldn't put weight on right leg, and was clearly in alot of pain. She stayed over night and got x-ray thankfully not broken but has compressed growth plate. So he gave me anti inflams and told me total rest for a week. She is still in alot of pain. Are there any supplements which I can give her or anything else I can do to help her make a full recovery?? She is out of real good stock and I have high hopes for her. Any advice will be much appreciated. Cheers Quote Link to post

dogrunner5 2 Posted July 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 No mate only happened last night. I have her in a travel cage, in the house, to be honst I could let her out cos she is not moving too far, must be bad cos she was a complete live wire before. Quote Link to post
