Baxter Buddy

Baxter started limping 2 weeks ago. He wouldn't walk on one of his hind legs. I took a day off and took him to the vet. He couldn't see any breaks, and said it should hopefully heal in 2 weeks.

Last night Baxter was running up the steps from the garage and yelped, he hurt the other hind leg. Now he can't really walk or stand. We freaked out. Took him to a vet this morning. He found that the second injury was a clean break of a tendon or something like that in his "knee". How to fix it? Surgery.

We will no doubt go ahead with this surgery. I am not too excited about dropping $1,300 as we are trying to save for a possible move. Or the possibility that the other leg will need it too, but Baxter is part of the family. We don't expect anyone to understand it. Our dogs are our "kids". We would do anything for them, and we will.

Its gonna be OK Buddy.
