Curiosity almost killed the dog!

Last Sun. Lazer wandered under the neighbors fence and found himself between two horses. The girls kept calling him to come but he wanted to play with those horses. One of the horses did not like Lazer and stepped on him. At first J thought he broke his back but then realized it was his leg so we rushed to the vet hospital. Lots of tough decisions on what to do b/c the surgery was really expensive. We talked about putting him down (which led to Elise constantly saying "You're going to kill my dog?" in disbelief). We found a vet that would do the surgery and let us make monthly payments.
Lazer had his surgery on Tues. to fix his broken femur, the doc. decided that the break could just be fixed with wiring so that's what he did. Then this morning he called to let us know that he just couldn't stop thinking about it all night so he came in early and put a pin in his leg. Lazer is just too active and he was worried that he would damage it. The staff told us he was on morphine and still wanted to play...so now he has to stay in his kennel for 4 weeks and not use his leg. Pretty hard to do for a puppy.
