Thank you Meg for such an interesting post! We just recently pulled a 8 month old GSD into a rescue group I belong to. He had one paw missing and they were going to amputate his whole leg. I suggested a prosthetic but did not really have much info to give them nor did I have time to do the research, he was scheduled for surgery a couple of days after I found out about him. Well, they went ahead and took his leg and he is doing great. Its just so frustrating and it seems so sad that he had to lose his whole leg. Rescue probably could not have afforded a prosthesis for him though. I will definitely save this post and your name for future reference! Martha BTW....Codie Rae says Three Legged Max is the cutest!
