PARKER SURGERY UPDATE: Parker had his surgery alleviate his pain. Parker is recuperating and we will post a follow up next week.
PARKER UPDATE 2: Parker went back to the vet for his two week recheck. Unfortunately, Parker is still not using his leg or putting it down at all. He runs, jumps and plays, but does not put his foot down. The doctor again suggested swimming as therapy, and added that he must also have resistance therapy so that he will have to put his foot down. If Parker does not use this leg, the muscles will atrophy. Stay tuned for more updates on his progress!!
PARKER UPDATE 3: Unforuntately, even after extensive resisitance therapy, Parker is still not using his back leg. :( He has another vet appointment next week, and we will see what the next step will be to help Parker recover use of his leg.
PARKER UPDATE 4: Parker is putting his leg down quite a bit when he walks now. We will just have to hope that he will continue to improve.
PARKER UPDATE 5 Parker is doing very well in his recovery. He puts his leg down all the time now!! Parker is still looking for his forever home. We hope that he finds it soon!

You can read more about the trials and tribulations of Sadies injury and recovery below. Rest assured, Sadie is now safe, sound and spoiled in her

SADIE UPDATE 2: Sadie's cast has finally been removed!! She is taking it easy to be sure that she doe not reinjure herself. Sadie has swimming for low impact physical therapy. (Check below for Sadie in her swim vest!!)
SADIE UPDATE #3 : A few weeks ago, one of Sadie's titanium screws backed out. After x-rays and examination, her vet determined that since the leg was strong, and the previous fractures were completely healed, he decided to take out all the screws and the plate, so her future adoptive family (where ever they might be) won't have to worry about surgery again.
SADIE UPDATE 4: Sadie is now good as
new and ready for adoption! Thank you to all who donated to Sadie's surgery and to all who inquired about her health!!! Check out her picutures:
