When I left for work this morning all the dogs were in the back yard. A short time later Craig went out to let them in and found Fiona shivering in pain and not putting any weight on her back right leg. Instead of waiting until Monday Craig took her to the vet today for X-rays. X-rays confirmed the suspicion of Calve Perthes disease and not only does she have it in one hip but BOTH hips. The vet thinks her right hip may even be broken already. Our hearts are breaking for her. We have been referred to a specialist.... more to follow.

Awww - poor thing! We are thinking of you and hoping for the best!
Here's hopes and prayers that everything will be ok. I know how close you've grown to that cute pup, and it brings tears to my eyes just to read your posts. But we are sending good thoughts Fiona's way as well as yours.
