X-ray machines for pets were very expensive, and there was no state subsidy. You had to pay for them out of your own pocket, and then you had to pay for the follow-up maintenance costs. The service life depended on the frequency of use. Generally, it was about five years. It was impossible for ordinary pet clinics to have it. You could only go to a large pet hospital to get X-rays.
"If it has a fracture, it needs internal and external fixation. If it has a fracture, it only needs external fixation. I think it's a fracture, but I can't tell until I see the X-ray. If you are worried, take it to a pet hospital for treatment. "
Sun Xiaomeng told the middle-aged man in front of her about the situation and waited for his decision.
"Tut..." Jin Er smacked his lips unhappily, "But it can't move at all. When I held it in my arms, it struggled a lot. It took me a lot of effort to get it here... How about you treat it as a fracture first, and then I'll take it to a pet hospital."
"Okay." Sun Xiaomeng agreed.
She called Long Xian, brought the bone-setting water, and asked Long Xian to help her. They worked together to put splints on the Husky.
Jin Er squatted on the side, feeling distressed. It was more painful than his own fracture.
"That's what you get for being naughty all day long. Now you've suffered, haven't you? Let's see if you dare to be naughty again! "He pointed at the Husky and said.
Sun Xiaomeng was busy with her work. She asked casually, "How did this dog get hurt? Fortunately, it's not the femoral head, or it would be troublesome. "
Jin Er sighed, "I took Good-for-Nothing to a party with my friends..."
"Good-for-Nothing?" Long Xian interrupted curiously.
Jin Er poked the Husky's forehead with his finger, "That's the foodie. You only know how to be lazy during training, but when it comes to eating, you become energetic. What is it if not Good-for-Nothing? "
With its front leg fixed by the splints, Good-for-Nothing probably didn't feel that much pain anymore. It was eager to turn over and stand up. It even stuck out its tongue to lick Jin Er's finger. Jin Er stopped it, "Don't move! Just stay here and wait for me! "
Jin Er took Good-for-Nothing to the party to show off his training results in front of his friends. He continued, "Not only did I bring a dog, but other friends also brought dogs. Someone brought a Tibetan Mastiff, and it looked very fierce. I told Good-for-Nothing several times to behave and not provoke it, but it … "
He was still angry and poked Good-for-Nothing with his index finger a few times. Good-for-Nothing seemed to be unaware of it and thought that Jin Er was playing with it.
"The more I told the Tibetan mastiff not to provoke it, the more it wanted to provoke it. Don't you think it's courting death? At first, it was fine. It just circled around the Tibetan mastiff from afar, occasionally barking at it. The Tibetan mastiff was well-trained. It was very obedient and sat in the same place without moving. You've already taken advantage of me, so you should stop while you're ahead, right? However, it refused to budge. The more it made a fuss, the more energetic it became! When I wasn't paying attention, it ran over and kicked the Tibetan Mastiff. Now it's really pissed off! "
Jin Er pointed at Good-for-Nothing's nose and scolded it, while Good-for-Nothing responded with a cheeky smile.
"Puff!" Long Xian could imagine the scene at that time. The Husky's actions must have been very dirty.
"That Tibetan Mastiff jumped up and pounced on it. The owner couldn't even stop it. Good-for-Nothing was smart. It turned around and ran away. That Tibetan Mastiff was at least twice its weight. If it really pounced on it and bit it, it would have died. But my Good-for-Nothing is not good at other things, but it's good at stealing food and running for its life. It ran very fast. When it saw that the Tibetan Mastiff couldn't catch up with it, it even turned around and winked at the owner. The result was a tragedy. There was a step in front of it, and it lost its footing and fell down... "
Good-for-Nothing whimpered, as if it was saying that it would pay attention next time.
Jin Er was still angry. He patted Good-for-Nothing's head and said, "Pay attention? You silly thing that doesn't learn your lesson. Next time? Why don't you go to heaven? "
"How high was the step?" Sun Xiaomeng asked while wrapping her bandage.
"More than one meter," Jin Er said. Jin Er said, "Usually, it fell down from this height many times, and nothing serious happened. But this time, it ran too fast. After falling down, it rolled on the ground for a few meters before stopping. After standing up, its leg couldn't take the force, and it couldn't run anymore. Fortunately, my friends pulled the Tibetan Mastiff, or else this silly thing would have knelt down on the spot."
Sun Xiaomeng noticed that there were many abrasions on the Husky's body. Fortunately, they were not serious. After fixing the splint, she disinfected the wounds on its body.
"Okay, let it walk on the ground." She stepped aside.
As soon as Jin Er loosened his grip, Good-for-Nothing, who couldn't stand the loneliness, jumped down from the bench. At first, its injured leg was curled up, and it didn't dare to touch the ground. After walking a few steps, it found that it was fine, so it immediately jumped up and grabbed Jin Er, asking for food.
Sun Xiaomeng observed its movements and said, "Maybe it's indeed a bone fracture. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. You can bring it here for a checkup in a few days."
Seeing Good-for-Nothing returning to its usual lively state, Jin Er believed most of Sun Xiaomeng's words. "Okay, then I don't need to go to the pet hospital, right?"
"Of course, you can go if you want. It's safer," Sun Xiaomeng said while writing the prescription.
She quickly finished writing the prescription, and Long Xian took the prescription to get the medicine.
Long Xian wasn't familiar with the placement of the medicine, so she came back after a few minutes with the medicine. She put the prescription on the cashier counter for Jin Er to see.
Jin Er picked up the medicine bottle and read the label on it, "Joint Strength, Complex Vitamins, Calcium Tablets..."
Sun Xiaomeng said, "Mix the medicine with the food and feed it to it. The usage and dosage are all on the prescription..." As she said this, she noticed that the Husky was too active and couldn't stop for even a moment. Now it had a strong interest in the splint on its leg, lowering its head and licking and biting it from time to time.
"Wait, Xiao Xian, bring me an Elizabeth collar," she ordered.
Long Xian trotted to fetch an Elizabeth collar and handed it to Jin Er.
"Put it on these days to prevent it from biting," Sun Xiaomeng suggested.
"How do I use this?" Jin Er took the Elizabeth collar and fiddled with it. He had seen other people's cats and dogs wearing it, and he always thought it looked funny. He didn't expect his silly dog would also want to try it.
"Isn't it in the shape of a trumpet? Just put the thin end on it, "Sun Xiaomeng instructed," Don't take it off these days, even if it feels uncomfortable. "
Jin Er took the Elizabeth collar and wanted to put it on Good-for-Nothing, but Good-for-Nothing had already seen through everything. It knew that once it was put on, it wouldn't be free anymore, so it ran away and hid far away.
"Good-for-Nothing, come here!" Jin Er shouted.
No matter how he called, Good-for-Nothing didn't move. When he chased after it with the collar, it ran away — it deeply implemented the principle of guerrilla warfare: "If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move; if the enemy wants to move, I'll move first."
Jin Er was so angry that his face and neck turned red. This was embarrassing. He was being led around by his own dog in front of outsiders!
