Smile Update on my little Yoda!
Well, he had X-rays this morning and he has two fractures in his pelvis near his hip and will need a plate. We are waiting for further info from a surgeon. His spine is fine so no spinal cord injury. I am so happy in one way his back is o.k. but sorry he will need surgery. He will be a year old Sept. 16th. What a way to spend his birthday. Thanks for all your concerns and support. As soon as my husband gets home from his appointment we will go pick him up and look at the x-rays. hugs, Sandy

Sandy,

Sorry to hear that Yoda will require surgery. Pets are a member of the family and I hope all goes well with his surgery.

Well sorry to hear that he will need surgery but it sounds like it is fixable. Much better than a spinal cord injury I am sure.

Wishing little Yoda a speedy recovery! Kool
