king 11,984 Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 My lurcher bitch spent most of last season laid up with a over stretched ligament and my vet said a clean break would have been better for her as once healed that's sort of it but this ligament damage is here for life and will bring an early end to her field life.Good luck with the wee thing King and hope it comes good for you .. She's probably lucky she ain't a runner mate I think.shes enjoying the couch now. Quote Link to post
Bosun11 537 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Never good but if you follow vets advice, a front leg break, in a terrier, usually goes well. Good luck. Quote Link to post

BGD 6,436 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Those wee terriers are tougher than you think, sure she'll bounce back in no time pal Just be glad it wasn't one of your runners That's what was running through my mind last night mate.It's the wife's couch dog aswell so she wasn't best pleased. But dogs will be dogs i suppose.got to look on the bright side I think could of been her back. Oh dear bet she doesn't let you take her out again Your dead right pal look on the bright side, it could of been so much worse. A clean break in a young terrier she should heal up well and be 100%. 1 Quote Link to post
