Meet Griffen

Griffen update!!
He did GREAT last night, woke up wagging. He's back at his foster home to continue his healing process. But I'm guessing from that smile that he's doing just fine!
If you think this sweet senior needs to join you family, fill out an adoption application an come meet him!

Griffen is a senior (10ish) Pomeranian who came to us from Orange County where he was a stray, and slated for euthanasia. He came with a history of front leg lameness. He would hold his left leg up and would not put weight on it.

We took him for x-rays, and as you can see, his left elbow doesn't look normal. Dr Maas at Bend Veterinary Clinic is unsure if it was a fracture or a dislocation, but it was long enough to ago that poor Griffen healed, freezing his elbow in a bent position, locking it in with lot of scar tissue. Unfortunately, there is no way to fix this - it has been too long - but it is still painful. So the only solution (besides leaving it as is and giving him pain killers for life) is to amputate the leg.

He will be available for adoption after he recovers from surgery
