scothunter 12,609 Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) it all depends on a lot of factors mate.ie how bad the break,tendon damage.will it knit together properly.ive seen a few come back from breaks,also seen ones that didnt.my first pup i got last summer broke its back leg at 3months old.i gave her away to someone as a pet,and i really liked the look of that particular pup aswell.got her litter brother in its place.i weighed up the pros and cons and it wasnt going to e easy for me,so i came to that decision.god knows if she would have been ok for running,guess ill never know.ATB with whatever decision you take mate. would also say the bringing back of the dog after the leg has healed will certainly play a big part in it aswell.if you are willing to put in the time,and the added effort,and if the break has healed spot on.im sure there no reason why it wouldnt.
