jcbbracken Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 just got back from vets ozzy pleased to see me tail wagging walking quite well spoke to vet the reason the screws broke was becuse the bone did not heal he has something to do with intracondylar fissure hes bones will not heal so waisted the last 4 months with the surgery if i had it all done again it would have been the same outcum so the amputasion was the right and only option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob85 Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Really sucks to hear that, with his tail wagging I'm sure he won't take long to get used to the missing leg. I doubt he's ready for retirement so after his R and R I would get him back out to some gentle work with an aim to getting him back into the field again. I'm sure you will be beside yourself with pride when he makes his first retrieve on game after his amputation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
