| Hobbes Hobbes is a 4 month old purebred male Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Hobbes was removed from his home when his owner was taken to rehab - it was quickly discovered that the puppy had a very bad break in his front leg. Hobbes leg has been repaired and now it is a waiting game to see if his leg will grow normally and if he will be able to use it. If it does not heal and become a usable limb it will have to be amputated but we are hopeful that will not happen. If you are interested in Hobbes it is important that you list "Hobbes 2" on your application as we have more than one Hobbes in rescue at this time. Hobbes will be neutered and be brought up to date on shots prior to adoption. He is currently located near Belvidere, IL November 13, 2008 Update Hobbes was seen by the vet today and had x-rays on his broken leg. At his last appt. right before he came into the rescue the vet was concerned that he did not seem to have good mobility and flexibility in the broken leg, when we got him into rescue he was immediately put on FlexGel to help him heal. We are pleased to report that the vet today was "extremely happy with his mobility and flexibility"! Quite a turn-around in just 2 weeks time. The cast has been removed an other than a restriction to stay off stairs for the next month it looks as if Hobbes will be fine and the danger of losing his leg is past! Hobbes is neutered and up to date on shots. January 2008 - A FOREVER HOME Hobbes has been adopted by Jamie Jones of Illinois Congratulations! |
