I was hoping to get some opinions, support, or information about amputations. We have to either amputate his leg halfway up the thigh or euthanize. He’s around 8 years old and doesn’t show any signs of being distressed even with the abscess he has growing on his knee. We’re obviously wanting to amputate but we’re very nervous about the process. Will this be the right decision for him? Do you think it’ll be too hard on him? What’s the healing process like? We want what’s best for him, even if that unfortunately means having to loose our little buddy. We all feel very lost but have to make a decision fairly quick. Any and all comments are appreciated.
