thanks for asking....
Well, after not putting any weight on his front paw, DH taking off from work, the vet thinking surgery, x-rays, puppy painkillers and anti-inflammatory pills and over $200....he was running around and playing the next day like NOTHING WAS WRONG

part of me is upset that he was so peachy the next day...but the bigger part of me was happy he is fine and didn't need surgery....darn dog had us so worried.
