My Handsome Boy

This image was taken the day before Gabriel got home from the small animal hospital here in Glasgow.... He has a broken front left leg... with both bones broken so he has an external fixator holding the bones together. He's been up today to have his dressings changed as he has infection where the bone had broken through the skin..... This was him after 12 days... looking very bright and coping so remarkably well with what had happened to him :o))

 

He was in the park running at speed, he caught his foot in a hole..... the leg remained static and he tumbled over himself.... thanks to the quick thinking and help of a vet nurse (who is now studying to be a vet) who was in the park at the time.... it was her actions that certainly helped him to keep his leg.....

 

Peace and quiet is the order of the day.... it's great to have him home and I'm sure he is happy to be here though he has quite a fan club up at the hospital :o))

 

Texture by skeletalmess.... which just suits Gabriel perfectly.... so a big thanks to him :o))

 

I hope everyone is well and life is good to you xx
