We were playing fetch indoors with a new toy (I replaced "Big Mean Kitty" with a new one) and she jumped, twisted and slipped on the wood floor and fell on her back with a big yelp. I brought her to the emergency room and found she has broke her left rear tibia and blew out her tarsus. I just got back from the hospital with out her as she's going to need surgery and is totally doped up on morphine and is puking, crapping and in serious pain. She will need surgery and may always walk with a limp. The surgeon will call me tomorrow. Please send her some prayers. Please send one my way too, I don't know how much more of this I can take.

i wish her well, you too Joe. Just hang in there, she will be ok.....
 
Prayers for your family Joe. Hopefully all goes well with your doggy and yourself as well :)
 
Oh Maxi, the poor baby, Joe I hope she has a speedy recovery. Prayers sent my friend, for the both of you.

Prayers on the way for both of you. Maxi is a good strong pup and I'm sure she will be back tugging you around the garage in no time.
 
I bet I know how you are feeling Joe, It sure hurts knowing one of your best friends are hurting and not at home :-( Prayers sent out for a full recovery and a prayer goes out to a great master that is hurting
And one for Merlin that is confused about where Maxi is and must know she is hurting [-o< So sorry to hear this Joe, Put faith in your Vet dr and try and keep good thoughts in your hart that she did not brake her back.

She's my buddy. It sucked just seeing her leg dangle at an odd angle. I can't imagine how much that hurt.

I was so bummed getting her into the Ramcharger. I couldn't pick her up due to the weird position of her rear leg so she just did a 3 legged leap to get in the truck and let out a yelp. She never yelps. :angry7:

As drugged up as she was, she still tried to get up and go home with me when I saw her.

Oh nooooo!!! Prayers are on the way for a thorough and speedy recovery.

I know you've been through so much lately ... gimme a call if you need a shoulder. I'm supposed to be working on some Jeep parts for a dog lover guy in Colorado but I can always take some time out for you. ;-)
 
Prayers sent to you and Maxi for a quick recovery. One of mine had to have knee surgery. It slowed her down some but she's still able to get around.
 
Jeez Joe, When it rains, it pours! I am really sorry to hear this about Maxi :sad8:.

Dogs are extremely resilient and I'm sure she be back home with you and Merlin very soon. Hang in there buddy and prayers are on the way for her & you too. :angel5:
 
Sorry to see this happen. I hope she has a speedy and pampered recovery.
 
Oh Ramcharger I am so sorry. I know what you are going through and it isn't fun on either side. Prayers sent. Trust me a limp is better then the alternative. PM me if ya need to talk about it.
 
I hope Maxi is doing better today. I know one thing we're going to stop throwing Lillys ball in the kitchen where the wood floors are.
Best wishes for Maxi to make a full recovery!
 
I'm really sorry to hear about Maxi Joe, hopefully they can stabilize the leg with a permanent plate I guess we'll see. Hang in there Joe for Maxi's sake and yes it's a safe bet that the frizbee days are over.
