Posting for diversion really. We have a lovely greyhound , our fifth , who is the apple of our eye , and on Monday we had a disaster . He tripped coming down the stairs , and by the time he got to the bottom, it was obvious he had broken his front leg and he was screaming. He scooped him up, and flew to the vets . X-rays yesterday confirmed it broke because he had a primary osteosarcoma tumour in his leg , by the knee , but no secondaries as it’s been caught really early . My vet who I trust implicitly, had recommended amputation just above the knee. , which is going on now . It’s such a shame . So now I’m googling three legged dog videos and trying to think how we can help him adapt . My poor boy .
