Hi Ben! Tank was born with a congenital defect of his right hind leg and it had to be amputated. He then gained quite a bit of weight (was 122 lbs., now down to 95), and somehow fractured his left hip. The only option was to perform a Femoral Head and Neck Excision and hope that a false joint would form. His previous owners surrendered him to Bullmastiff Rescuers Inc., and they brought him to me for rehab at Rebound Animal Wellness Center. He's doing great, and is an absolute love!
Thanks, Zurison! Best job in the world - I'd do it for free if I didn't have 2 RR's to keep in the style to which they have become accustomed. ;)
