If this video helps you can buy @fixed1t a coffee [ Ссылка ]. Thx. Being a dog owner I love the Vet programmes on the various channels. Sadly I've noticed an increasing number of people putting their dogs through hell in order to keep a defective, damaged or infected leg, because they feel that their lovely pet will be some how be diminished, unhappy or be unable to cope if it has the limb amputated. But owning a very active (when he isn't sleeping 22 out of 24 hours a day) rescue Lurcher (greyhound saluki cross) called Skippy, I know that he is not hindered or disabled by having had his left back leg amputated after being thrown from a moving vehicle. He's always happy, playful and full of beans and constantly running or should I say leaping about, including charging up and down six flights of stairs to my Lab to steal my Ginger Nut Biscuits. When we run Skippy and his Sister Bree (who has four legs) there is very little difference in speed and agility other than cunning Bree has figured out that he turn slow one way than the other so uses it to her advantage. A dogs leg amputation is very quick, pain free and unless there is a residual infection from an injury the healing is also very quick and the dogs rehab is also quite quick. Whereas complex surgery takes time, risks infection, puts the dog through months of pain and discomfort and may leave the dog with worse mobility than having three legs. So please watch the video and consider it should you dog suffer injury or other problems. My second gripe is! I've been watching so great dog re-homing programmes and time after time people are rejecting three legged dogs(tri-paw or tri-pad) on the grounds that they don't think the dog is right, or it wont be happy, or it wont be so loving etc let me assure you Skippy is the most affectionate and sweet dog in the home I've ever come across and is full of beans and fun to be with, so please give three legged dogs a chance what love you show them they'll give you back in heaps.

I hope you like the video, Skippy is an amazing defender at football or Soccer and every time we open the back door or step out into the garden he rushes for a ball to play goal keeper.
