My dog has harmed himself going down the steps, I think he hurt his ankle.
Felix, the dog, was running around the house. He was very excited for his owner to come home so they could go for a walk. When he hears the door unlocking, he flew 6 steps down the stairs.
Driving to the Vet
Felix hurt his hock joint and was so disappointed, he then realized he couldn't go for that amazing walk anymore. He curled up to ease the pain, but he was still in much pain
Arrived at the Vet
Angela walks in and see her dog whimpering. She notices that his ankle is swollen, and he is in much pain.
Veterinarian Examines
Angela called the Emergency Vet and told them everything that happened with Felix. They told her to come to the Vet ASAP, so he could go into surgey.
Felix is Better!
Angela carried Felix to the car and drove him all the way to the Vet.
They finally arrived to the Vet and Angela carried him inside. The Veterinarian rushed him into surgey.
The doctor first examines the dog's ankle for swelling, pain, or deformity. Then, carefully stabilize the ankle using a splint and wrap it with bandages for support. Finally, she puts the cast on him and gives him treatment to ensure proper healing.
Angela came in and saw Felix standing and felt soo much better!
