dws1410 8 Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 My 3 and a half year old 1/4 collie a week after a lamping accident on a night oot with RM25. There is 17 inches of steel plates and 16 no 3 screws holding that leg together the leg was shattered above the wrist and the bone snapped in 2 just below the elbow. It took 3 surgeons 4 hours to put the leg back together the head orthapedic surgeon told me that he was as close to having the leg amputated as she has ever seen. The vets bill is at £4500 and still rising. Sorry about the double post i posted in wrong section first time 1 Quote Link to post
