Very difficult accepting a trophy when the dog you were running against pulls up lame 3/4 of the way through the course, but I'd like to say two things...one, my sincere condolences to Rae on Supe's injury. Having spoken to her on the phone tonight I'm relieved to hear that Sandra (both of our's vets) is confident she can get him sorted, but the lad will have a long road ahead of him bless him :luck: and two, my thanks to Laurie for being so gracious at the presentation when he told me not to take anything away from Badger as he was winning before it happened.

As I said on the phone TC, well done to Badger. However, I dont think anyone actually knows when it happened, only when he finally pulled up on 3 legs.

Sorry Rae, that's what I think Larry meant, when he pulled up.

I'm still feeling horrid about the whole thing, such a sad thing seeing injuries like that happening. I just hope Supe is feeling, and doing okay today :luck: Take care of yourself and him :huggles:

So glad that Supes on the mend after such a horrific injury. I think most people didn't know how bad it was as he never made a fuss being the kind of dog he is :wub: and well done to Sandra in saving his leg :thumbsup: as that seemed the way it may well have gone if the complex proceedure had gone even slightly wrong!!! What a dog, the best from his litter by far and really should be used. Well done to all, it was a great and fun day, looking forward to the next one :thumbsup:

Thanks Pat - Supe sends kisses to Fern and boyish sniffs to Homer.

The cast is off, he needs to start physio but there has been a bit of a complication so a bit of delay. However, we are going back to Pembrookshire in March and we hope he will be able to have a run on the beach by then.

Sandra has done an amazing job. Having read up on this type of injury, it seems as though the ligaments go first, and then the hock if they run on it. I suppose with the addrenaline etc he's not felt it at the time.
