Snowdon's leg amputated

After many x-rays, tests to determine if Snowdon had orthopedic issues or neurological issues that prevented him from using his front leg, it was decided that we had to amputate his leg. He was having some pain when the doctor examined his leg that was not apparent initially when he came in to rescue. This was a very hard decision but I knew it was the best for Snowdon. He was not using his leg and it was atrophying from lack of use. Now the wait to receive the results of the biopsy. He will go back to his foster home when he has recovered sufficiently and the doctors say he is ready to return.
