Shy is littermate to Boots, one of our special needs Greyhounds who recently found his home. Shy like Boots broke her rear leg and required surgery to repair the break. She has had a special plate installed to support the bones in her leg until they fully heal. She is no longer Shy and has become a very outgoing and fun three year old.

 

Shy had a broken and displaced Tarsal bone and her Calcanious bone, the main ankle bone, was twisted out of position. The break was unstable and causing her pain and making it hard for her to walk. Our orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Petra Ost, corrected the deformity of the joint and attached a metal plate to the bone to allow them to heal in the correct position. Once Shy has healed, she will be able to walk comfortably again. No more racing but a fine retirement awaits Shy when she is adopted.
