Buck #3900
Buck is an 8 month old male yellow lab who is as sweet as can be. He’s a bit overweight at 73 lbs and won everyone over at the vet clinic where he remained until GBR could pick him up. He showered everyone with kisses who stopped to give him some love (and he got plenty).
Thankfully Dr. Kiefer at VSCP squeezed in Buck for surgery. He did a right hip open reduction, putting the bone back in place, then used a toggle-pin fixation to hold it in place and repaired the ruptured ligament. Buck will need eight weeks of recovery, with the first two weeks being almost totally quiet, then he can start short leash walks.
Buck seems to do fine with other dogs. He has been neutered and microchipped. His foster home reports he is doing very well.
