Puggle Tears Leg Ligament

By | July 6, 2013

Ever since we moved to New York, I’ve really struggled to update this blog. I’ll do my best to bring the blog up to speed from now on… :)

As for all the people who are submitting their puggles to be featured, thank you! As I post more, I’ll try to pull from past submissions and get some of you guys featured! (After all…every puggle deserves the spotlight!)

Okay… now onto business. This blog should really be called, “CormacGetsHurt.com” because the poor little guy is injured again! Back in April we took a trip back to Michigan for a Leukemia fundraiser for my mother, (www.lovejeannie.com), and during our trip Cormac took a tumble… The results were a cut leg and a torn knee ligament. :-(

He was very confused as the vet assessed his knee. As if he was asking, “why can’t I walk???” The wound was flushed out and 4 staples were put in.

During supervision, we could take off his “cone of shame” and let him do what he loves most… Bask in the Spring sun!cormac-puggle-leg-injury-3

It’s been particularly hard back in NYC because we live in a 4 floor walk-up… Every time we would take the dogs out, we’d carry Cormac. 25lbs has NEVER felt so heavy!!  (Below is my darling husband carrying him!)cormac-puggle-leg-injury-5 cormac-puggle-leg-injury-6

About a month ago, Cormac was able to start doing the stairs himself and eventually stopped limping. With a LOT of physical therapy at home, he is finally getting better!
