Hi,  I am new to this site.  Our greyhound boy, Brody, had his right front leg broken (splintered) last year when the gardener left the drain pipe off and Brody's foot went down into the pipe.  He had the plates and pins, started limping, went on Metacam and was finally diagnosed with bone cancer last Friday.  He had his leg amputated that day as the remaining bone was so fragile. 

After his other operations he had been able to come home the next day.  However, on Saturday they noticed blood pooling by his genitals.  Supposedly this is from some of the small capillaries bleeding.  He is still at the hospital.  He looked good on Saturday and even stood and ate some food.  Yesterday he didn't get up and was crying all day.  They have moved him into ICU and take his blood every four hours to monitor coagulation and his blood count. 

Has anybody else had this complication?  I think that greyhounds might be more susceptible to this bleeding. Brody is such a sweet boy; I hate to see him in pain again.  Thanks, Pat
