Lots of positive thoughts coming your way for Alfie. Our first cocker Bella (no longer with us) broke her leg when she was 14 weeks old. We were referred to an orthopaedic specialist in Nottingham because she had a spiral fracture to her femur and had broken her tibula and fibula. She ended up with metal pins in for about three weeks and coped with it much better than I did. She was absolutely fine afterwards.

Just wanted to say Alfie is in our thoughts today, hope all goes well. Hugs to you and Mrs TB.

Lots of positive thoughts to you both :luv:
-
Just seen this - awful news - fingers crossed that the outcome is a good one. I know what these silly workers are like - Roxy is still in a splint 3 weeks after her op to repair a torn ligament in her leg - but they manage remarkably well on 3 legs - rather too well to be honest.
-
Alfie has a y fracture of the elbow which entails a complicated procedure to fix.
He is in surgery as I type, the operation could be as long as six hours. I'll post when I have any more news.
Thanks for all your thoughts and good wishes for my special boy.

Thinking of you both.

Been thinking about Alfie today and hoping things were going well.
6 hours is a very long time until you get some news, hope you and Mrs Top Barks are ok.
Sending positive thoughts to the lovely Alfie and hope the op goes well and we get some better news very soon, we have seen some amazing recoveries here on COL over the years, I think the power of positive thought and good wishes sent his way must help :luv:

It's incredible that he's using his leg already - what a little toughie he is. So pleased all has gone well. Told my OH about it yesterday as Alfie is a lot like our little Bobby, and as soon as we got up this morning he said to me "Get on Cockers Online to see how that little dog is doing". I was showing him some of the videos you have on your site - it's amazing what you can do with your dogs - so impressive. Hope Alfie continues to improve - lots of licks from Roxy and Bobby :)
-
Wow Alfie, you are a very brave boy xx
-
Go Alfie :clapping:
You can't keep a good cocker down :luv:

Well done Alfie :clapping:. Such good news Mark :D

Brave boy Alfie :luv:

Amazingly, he is weight bearing and walking on his poorly leg (all be it with a very pronounced limp). :D :D :D

Alfie is doing well currently snuggled up in the same bed as my other patient Douglas who had to have a toe removed this week.
Just arrived home

Oh dear your doggies have been in the wars! How did Douglas lose a toe?
Unbelievable that Alfie is standing in that picture having broken his leg!
Dogs are incredibly resilient.

Oh dear your doggies have been in the wars! How did Douglas lose a toe?
Unbelievable that Alfie is standing in that picture having broken his leg!
Dogs are incredibly resilient.
Douglas had some sort of growth on his pad, not sure if it is anything sinister but the vet recommended the toe to be removed as a precaution.
Alfie is standing because of the amount of plates and screws holding him together.
-
Best wishes to Alfie and Douglas wishing them better soon.
Erica.
-
Bless them both, hope they are both back to full fitness very soon.
-
Only just seen this thread and so sorry to hear that both Alfie and Douglas have been having a rough time.
Lots of spoilt times ahead for both of them then :luv:
