Something she's doing with full dedication.
Januari 2011
Our Skye has broken het leg during one of her playing actions with her sister Djill.
She was put in plaster the same night by our vet, but he had his doubt on a full recovery and therefore we decided to bring her in for surgery.
January 5 she was operated by animal specialist Edgar Scheepens .
She now has a steel pin in her leg together with an external fixation.
The operation went well, on the X-ray the bone was again in its correct position.
She now has a steel pin in her leg together with an external fixation.
Skye will remain in our kennel.
We hope she will recover fully and be able to walk with the sheep in the future.
First of all its now the time to keep her quiet, which will not be an easy task since she has the spirit of a real working dog.
