Awe poor HB. I examined his whole leg. I discovered that the elbow joint the one closeset to his shoulder is the spot where the twist occurs. I tried gentle pressure to straighten it and it resisted.
So that must be where the break occured. The other leg was fine.
That explains his funny gait and when I hold him he puts the left shoulder on me and turns his head in. He is trying to get his right leg comfy since it is turned in like that.
Took me all this time to discover it. He nearly always has his head down for pets. Or is lying down all stretched out. How long have I had him 2 months.
OH I will try 1/2 an aspirin tomorrow when I am going to be home to observe and see if he becomes more active. If so them I will know he is in pain and contact the vet about what to do for him. Well meds wise. I don’t want to put him thru the pain of another break and rehealing. Poor fellow. I wonder how long it had been like that and if the previous owner had it in a splint and it just healed funny or if it was left that way to heal on it’s own.
He is 3 years old so no telling.
