Buster’s broken leg – a great outcome

OUCH! A few months ago, Buster the 6 month old Border Collie took a tumble off the ute and badly broke both bones of his right front leg. He was in a lot of pain, but extremely brave!

Dr Jim applied a plate to the larger of the two bones (the radius), which helped both of the fractured bones to re-align. With lots of rest and care from his dedicated owners, Buster has since made a complete recovery.

Over the weeks of his treatment, we all fell in love with Buster. He has such a sweet nature and easygoing attitude, and we are thrilled that he has recovered so well. Well done to Buster and his family!
