This best friend is Buddy, he’s a 3-year-old toy Australian Shepherd. This is what Buddy’s mom has to say about him: “Buddy is no less than a best friend. I have two other dogs, and though they love me it is somehow apparent that Buddy loves me the most. To him I think home is not a place, but it is me, and it is much likewise for me and all my dogs.” Buddy was looking forward to a playdate. His mom was having some friends over and they were bringing their dogs to play with Buddy and his fur siblings. None of the furry friends had ever been aggressive before, but at this playdate one of the visiting dogs snapped at Buddy and broke his leg. To properly diagnose a broken bone in a dog, it’s very important that you take them to the vet, and get proper treatment. Without it, your dog may develop other health issues related to the break. Once a vet has diagnosed the issue, it’s important that you help your dog care for their broken leg. Check out these great tips by Hills®:
Buddy’s mom had just started a new job and was taking care of her disabled step-dad. His mom knew that she wasn’t going to be able to afford the care Buddy needed to repair his leg, so she applied to Fur Kids Foundation for help with the emergency veterinary care. On the plus side: His mom’s friend felt terrible about the accident, and wanted to help pay for Buddy’s surgery, so she set up a fundraiser. Thankfully between the fundraiser, Buddy’s mom, and Fur Kids Foundation, Buddy was able to get the surgery he needed and is making a full recovery! Fur Kids Foundation is 100% ran by dedicated volunteers who give their time to help the Foundation raise money, take applications, and spread the word about the good work the Foundation does in Campbell County, Wyoming.
