Oh.poor Coffee.did the vet even take an xray or he is just guessing? When Desi was 9 weeks old he came running behind me and when I turned around I stepped on him..screeching all the way to the vet.the vet couldn't move his leg so he took him in the back for an xray and I think they had to pull his leg to get the hip back in the socket.I felt soooo very bad. About a week ago, he was in the recliner chair and he must have slipped and fell on the floor.he screeched and screeched. I looked at the clock.after vet hours! I took him to my bed to check out what was wrong.and nothing was wrong. I think he must have just been scared from falling.
I do hope that Coffee starts feeling better.sometimes extra kisses help to get well faster, too!

My Dad (who's disabled) was carrying him down to the basement when he slipped and fell...dropping Coffee. I immediately went home and took Coffee to the Vet. The Vet didn't think that the leg was broken, so he gave us some pain meds. Coffee is so sad right now and I can't fix it. Please pray for his healing...thank you!
