My little guy Peanut(13 days old) is scheduled for a leg amputation on November 4th at 11 am. We originally thought it was a splayed leg and started the splinting process yesterday, but after seeing his leg turn black and blue from bruising I felt another vet trip was in store. Upon further investigation and after some x-rays were taken, Peanut has a broken leg. We discussed the option of splinting and trying to fix the leg, but I was told it would likely not work. So, amputation seemed to be the best option.
I'm curious as to what quality of life Peanut will have after the amputation, and what special accommodations I will need to make for him. Since he's so young will it even have an effect on him?
I'd love to hear experiences with one legged friends and learn from them!
