He's gone to the vets for X-rays

He ran out on to the lane by our house and a pick up with a trailer hit him

I am devestated. The dc are quiet and asking when he is coming home

Vet just rang to say it's his back end and they will know more once he he had tests done.

Hand hold please while we wait....

Poor dog. I hope he is ok.

Oh no how awful. I know it’s a cliche but make a sweet cup of tea and sit down.
Keeping everything crossed for your dog.

Oh my God, I'm so sorry. My dog is a Houdini with no road sense, and this is my worst nightmare.

Thinking of your lovely doggy. Flowers. All fingers crossed.

Elphame · 19/10/2017 13:14

Oh dear - I'm so sorry. Hope you hear quickly and that he's going to be OK.

Oh OP I hope your dog is ok

Mine had a big scare a few weeks ok. We live on the corner of a t-junction.

It's not too busy but it does get cars.

I went out and my little dog shot out between my legs wanting to come with me. As we went to grab her, she shot in front of a car who managed to stop, legged it round the corner where another car had to emergency brake before legging it home back through the door.

I was petrified and now we make sure she's well away from the door when I go out

Fingers crossed things aren't too bad, hang on in there. It is horrible waiting on phone calls from vets ...

Wolfiefan · 19/10/2017 13:25

Oh no. I'm so sorry. Hoping the fact it was the trailer and not the actual car might be better news. Maybe a glancing blow.
You must be so worried. Thinking of you OP.

justdontevenfuckingstart · 19/10/2017 13:27

Thinking of you, hope dodgie is ok x

onemorecakeplease · 19/10/2017 13:50

That made me smile - he is dodgy.

He's such a funny monkey and makes us all so happy. We've only had him since Easter he's 11 months.

I can't stop crying. Keep hoping they will call and say he'll be ok.

Such bad timing. I keep thinking if only we had got up earlier/later/gone out for the day.

Sad

Fingers & everything else crossed for you all! Poor doggie I really hope he’s ok x

Blodplod · 19/10/2017 13:58

Oh no, poor you. Fingers crossed it's not too bad and fixable. Hopefully you'll find out some news sooner rather than later.

justdontevenfuckingstart · 19/10/2017 14:16

onemore my daughter started calling ours dodgies and now they always are, I have everything crossed for you. x

Wolfiefan · 19/10/2017 14:37

Ours is a doggle. We are waiting on blood results. We've not had her a year. They're such a worry.

BaconAndBees · 19/10/2017 14:39

Flowers. What a worry.

onemorecakeplease · 19/10/2017 14:44

He has a shattered pelvis the vet just rang

They are referring X-rays on to see if anything can be done

My heart is broken

oh sweetheart x

Flowers It's every dog owner's worst nightmare

I hope he's ok - do keep us updated Flowers

BiteyShark · 19/10/2017 14:53

Oh no Flowers

Blodplod · 19/10/2017 14:55

Whereabouts in the country are you OP? Supervet Noel Fitzpatrick is in Eashing Lane, Godalming, Surrey. May not be as dramatic as that but are you near there?

tinygirlsmum · 19/10/2017 14:58

My terrier got run over at 6 months old. Shattered pelvis and 2 broken back legs and 1 front. Just want to let you know that it was 10 years ago now and he's fine. Few permanent pins in his leg and a bit of arthritis, but he recovered so quickly. It was horrendous at the time and I was a mess so I know how you feel but be positive. My local vet did everything and there wasn't even any need to go to specialists. Sending hugs

Nandoshoes · 19/10/2017 15:00

Reallly really sorry this happened.

Hopefully he will be good as new soon.

This breaks my heart I could never cope if this happened to one of my dogs everyone thinks I'm paranoid always having them on a lead.

Thinking of ur little pooch hoping he pulls through.

onemorecakeplease · 19/10/2017 15:25

We are in the far north of Scotland but I will
Literally take him anywhere

Thanks tiny that sounds hopeful.

The vet receptionist didn't seem very optimistic. But I will be asking for the X-rays to be sent to me and meeting with the vet later.
