Bruiser was adopted in August 2011 from Kentucky Lab Rescue. His front left leg was broken and healed with the bones separated. The break had occurred some time previously as the tissue was healed. When he walked or ran he was three legged with a leg that flopped up and down and essentially useless. We attempted to save his leg by having it surgically repaired with a titanium plate and resetting the bones. Rehab was conducted at The Veterinary Wellness Center, a state of the art veterinary clinic in Lexington, Ky. where you see Bruiser in the Hyperbaric chamber. This was used to try and facilitate bone growth and calcification. Unfortunately that did not occur and we had to amputate his leg. To day he is happy and his 3 legs do not slow him down. He is 9 pounds of pleasure and no one pushes him around. He is a real joy and repays me daily with his zest for life.

Judge OKs $24M for cats, dogs sickened by pet food

CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) — A federal judge, on Tuesday, October 14,2008, approved a $24 million settlement for owners of dogs and cats who were sickened or died after eating pet food contaminated with an industrial chemical.

The ruling by U.S. District Judge Noel Hillman clears the way for U.S. pet owners with claims to start receiving checks next year. A Canadian judge has scheduled a hearing for Nov. 3 to determine whether the settlement can also apply in that nation.

Under the deal, pet owners have until Nov. 24 to file claims.
To date more than 10,000 owners have filed claims.
