<DIV>I want to thank everyone who e-mailed me about our newly acquired Rescue.
We had him at the Vet man yesterday and the X-rays are not good news. It seems
that the poor baby's leg isn't very good. There are two options we can do
surgery with no guaranty or they are going to have to amputate the leg
altogether. Poor Fred has a hard enough time with 4 legs I don't know how he
will manage with 3. The rescue has been very good about paying for the
x-rays but I am not sure what they are going to choose when the decision has to
be made. I am hoping we can save the leg but if it is going to cause Fred any
pain I would want the amputation. It is a shame what people ignore in their
pets. Fred has had this from birth and it isn't going to get better on its
own. If we had him as a baby we would of tried to correct this
then.Our Fred is only 18 months old. Please send some healing
drool for Fred. . It would be appreciated while we wait for the decision of
the fate of our baby's leg.</DIV>
<DIV>Thank you again.</DIV>
