Puppy Crisis


We've had our beautiful puppy less than a week and yesterday, around 7:30, she was up on the couch and decided to jump off. Apparantly she landed funny and nearly did a sommersault. Her left leg was kinda crooked and she would not bear any weight on it what-so-ever. If we tried to straighten it she'd flip out. She refused to lay down in her crate and would only sleep (sort of) if we held on to her. I thought for sure she'd shake it off and we just needed to get her mind off of it and get her walking and she'd be fine. Well, as the evening wore on and it just didn't get any better, after MUCH prayer and talk with hubby, we decided to take her in to the animal hospital. The xrays revealed a severe break. She has a temporary bandage on her leg right now and she'll need to see a surgeon to see if she needs surgury or if she can heal fine with just a splint. She's on pain meds but still in quite a bit of pain and having a difficult time sleeping. As you can see, her bandage is almost as big as she!! Please keep our beautiful sweet puppy in prayer. And us too! We really would like to know what God is saying through all of this.....
