BUDDY (prev named toddy at the shelter) is an adorable gray mini schnauzer mix - 4 years old, he weighs 13 pounds and was just rescued on 1/2/2010 from the shelter red list. he is neutered vaccinated and micro-chipped.
i noticed that buddy had a slight limp and he was guarding his hind-quarters...i took him to the vet - his back left leg is atrophied and xrays showed that his pelvis has been broken in three places! the whole area is inflamed and tender! he does not need surgery...but, he has to be on cage rest for several weeks which means he has to stay in his crate so that he does not move around and even be carried out to go potty and kept on a leash so that he has limited space to move around when he goes potty-- then he gets carried back to his crate -- same with his meals...he can come out of his crate to be held for a bit - but, cannot be let down to walk around...

he is sweet as pie - he loves to be held and gives lots of kisses!
he likes other dogs and he likes cats, too!
this little luv will be ready for adoption after his pelvis heals and he completes his rehab therapy.
