[quote=Anonymous]Trainer was responsible, took the puppy to the vet: slight leg fracture to 12 week old puppy. From photos the puppy looks fine, report says minimal issue but I haven't spoken to their vet nor mine yet.  The pup has to stay there additional week (s?), also the pup was to be van transported to us in another state. I am very upset, pup was a birthday gift to my DC and now will not be on time.  I am worried, the leg won't heal right plus my current dog at home is bigger and playful.  I would imagine the pup won't be able to play around for weeks on end.  Plus will I still be eligible for the dog to get dog insurance now?

--Is hairline fracture for a pup hindering to growth development? Will it heal normal?

- How long does it take to heal?  I never experienced this even with a human.

- Will he be able to be active with a bigger dog when I bring it home?

- I'm worried about the van ride, one more different person handling the pup and transportation drive.

- Anxiety, psychological state of pup being locked in a crate at the trainer away from other dogs playing with him for couple weeks to heal and ride home, plus hand over to us, new family.

- Will we eligible for dog insurance now?  Merle dog.

Is their anything else I should be thinking about? I am waiting for the x-ray and reports.  The trainer is a separate entity from the breeder (works with them) and was picked up from the breeder from the trainer.  We paid 50% to the trainer already.

Ugh :cry:
