Jackson slipped on the carpet going downstairs today and slid half-way down. When he got to the bottom, he wouldn't walk on his left rear leg. My initial panic was "Oh no! He tore his ACL!!" His right is torn, and his left was loose the last time they checked it. So off to the vet we went.
His ACL is fine, (shew!) but he injured the tendons/ligaments on his outer toe. He's in the puppy pen for a week, no running/jumping. Rest and previcoxx. Then we can start slow activity. His mom is going to kill me. She's at summer camp, and I was supposed to go be the nurse this week. We made arrangements for him to be at his great-grandparents. Unfortunately, my husband just got out of the hospital from small bowel obstruction, so I couldn't go to camp. I figured since I was here, Jackson could just stay home with us. I am going to be in big trouble come Friday when she gets home!
