Soon after I posted Peppy's photos my son fell on Peppy hurting his right front leg. (I'm typing one handed to hold him.)
The vet was coming out anyway to geld a horse so timing was perfect. The vet drove up within 10 minutes of the accident. He said its not broken but hyperextended. He also explained deaf dogs tend to overreact--because they can't hear themselves yelp.
Peppy was crying ad crying--only me holding helped. I left him with my son on a pallet while I helped with the horses. When I returned I asked hows he doing. My son said fine, he hasn't cried. Then Peppy saw me and cried and cried until I held him---so I guess he is a little spoiled.
I'm still holding him becausee I don't want his sister Precious to try to play with him. I'll put him in the crate alone tonight.
Whew...being a mom is exhausting.
