Well, Pete broke his left Tibia Sunday morning. Not sure how. Took him to ye vet, they casted it and said no activity for 2-3 weeks.

So of course we all had to sign his cast.

Boy boy does that bring back some memories.  Our little house dog Witch broke the same leg just like yours same cast everything .  We kept her off it and helped her do everything for five six weeks they even put a pin n her leg .  After six weeks doc said she done great and all heal even better.  Just keep him still no moving around its a pain in the butt .  Good luck

Well, mr. Pete had to go back to the vet this morning. Somehow the splint/cast had slid down his leg about 1" so they have to sedate him again in the morning and recast it. Ugh. Puppies!!

Hope Mr. Pete has a speedy recovery.  I know those splint are a pain in the rear. When our gyp had to wear one, we saw the vet often, it would slip down, had to shave her back and put  elasticon around the splint and then around her back and stomach to hold it up.   Good luck
