Ya I had this happen to a bird dog of mine its a crapy deal. From my experiance, my dog was 5 when it happend to him spent every dime I had to get him all taken care of. After he got all healed up I. Started hunting him again he would last all day but the next morning he could bearly get up and move around I would have to give him some doggie drugs to losein him up. I hope he gets better good luck.

Just had the same thing happen to one of my hounds during bear season. He got bit in his ham which also got his achillies, made a tear. Letting it heal naturally, its getting better slowly but surely. Go to this website it will pretty much tell you everything about it very informative. www.tiggerpoz.com Good luck
