The accident

Our new life was just peachy.

We had all adjusted to the new regime of a little one and then in November 2011, a simple mishap while out for our regular run resulted in Buddy suffering what would eventually lead us to the Tripawds community.

I was always cautious with the dogs as we ran around our neighbourhood and kept them on leads to help ensure their safety. While running we made a u-turn and Buddy got tangled around my feet with his front right leg bending outwards.

A lump literally appeared right before our eyes on the outside of his leg. We rang our vet immediately and took him straight in for assessing.

With some relief, the vet diagnosed soft tissue damage and we were sent on our way with instructions on how best to treat the injury with the expectation that the swelling should subside over the next few days.

It didn’t.

  1. So that’s how you first had a “clue”……….so many different ways this stuff presents itself.

    You are an excellent writer of non fiction!!!

    Give that sweet Buddy a big hug! Love this guy!
