Workout Partner
My workout partner has returned home. For those who didn't know he has a birth defect of a malformed right radius. It is convex when it should be concave to match up with the wrist bone. This causes a very loose joint which easily slips out of place like this x-ray shows causing, swelling, pain, and eventually destruction of the cartilage in the joint. He has been back at the breeder's house for the past 6 weeks but has been doing real well so we decided to keep him and see how things go. He's a trooper and doesn't whine or complain about his pain. I'm glad to have him back.

Beautiful Dog. I love german shepherds. We had one as a kids. About the only dog I've loved more is a collie we have right now. She's a super sweetie.
Thanks TP.
There is just something about man's best friend.
Congrats buddy.
Although he lost his mowhawk ears and they're standing up a little more on their own... you sure you got the same dog???
Glad to see he's home.
What a lovely dog =) it's such a shame he is sick =(
