Tendons

[baz 463]

Hi, has anybody,s dog running abilities been effected once they have cut the tends? My bitch sliced hers yesterday and after being stitched back up , I know it is going to part again... And she will have to cope with having a flat toe now, but I'm gutted now thinking it will effect her running. Any experiences on it??????

My dog cut his stifle tendon last year was very lucky a bit higher he wouldve been finished but he came back ok. Don't like any toe injurys I think toes and wrist injurys effect them run. If you can get lazer done on toe helps a lot. Good luck hope it comes goodd for you.

I've seen a good few dogs run excellently with ruptured tendons, but obviously it is not ideal.As Gorger said, lazer treatment can be beneficial

My old man has had greyhounds which have had toes removed following tendon injuries, obviously not ideal, but they still ran well enough. Tendons have little to no blood supply so it is unlikely the tendon will heal fully, as the blood is needed to supply body tissue with the nutrients to heal. Hence muscles heal quickly due to large blood supply in muscle tissue and th tendons and ligaments are a little trickier to heal right. Cheers Matt.

My bitch has done a wrist and a toe on each front foot. ATM it does not affect her but I think now she gettin older it will be bk to haunt her

What's laser therapy? And where do I go to get it done? Cheers for advice fellas, I'm feeling slightly better as a few have now said it won't drastically effect her.
