Ok, so we're well into the 3rd month of recovery following Rhett's broken leg. At the moment, he's in a soft bandage-- the splint/cast bandage thingie was removed last week. His xrays showed some improvement with bone starting to fill in around the fractures! Yay!
One more week of this soft cast, then it's removed and he goes to bare leg. He's cleared for LIGHT exercise... he's been up and down the street in the front now a couple times and around the block (it's a short block) once, grinning all the way. I'm still supposed to keep him separate and confined, and carry him down stairs and keep him from jumping off the couch, etc.
So, there ya go! I'm looking forward to things being normal for him again. He hasn't enjoyed this at all. I think the confinement was worse for him than the pain. He's always been such a good dog, he's rarely heard the word "no" before.
