📌 Incident Description
This adorable Bichon Frise had an unfortunate accident while riding an escalator at a shopping mall—its paw got caught in the moving steps, causing a severe toe injury. The owner immediately brought the dog to our hospital for emergency treatment.
🩺 Initial Diagnosis
Upon examination, the left hind paw showed exposed bone, torn skin, and a wound contaminated with debris and blood clots. The dog was in noticeable pain and needed urgent treatment.
🏥 Diagnosis & Treatment Plan
X-ray imaging revealed a complete fracture of the third phalanx in both the second and third toes. Surgery was necessary to prevent complications.
✅ Surgical Procedure:
1️⃣ Wound Cleaning & Disinfection: The fractured toe bones were removed, and the wound was thoroughly flushed and disinfected to prevent infection.
2️⃣ Bone Edge Trimming: Sharp bone edges were carefully smoothed to reduce discomfort.
3️⃣ Wound Closure: The skin was meticulously sutured to promote optimal healing.
📸 Friendly Reminder: Surgery images may be distressing—please view with caution.
🌈 Post-Surgery Recovery
The surgery was successful, and the dog woke up shortly after. During hospitalization, the wound was disinfected daily, and under our attentive care, the injury healed well. Fortunately, the affected limb did not suffer any negative impact on walking or movement. Before long, this little pup was back to being active and playful! 🎉
📢 Vet’s Advice
Escalators pose a hidden danger for pets! We strongly recommend that pet owners carry their dogs when using escalators or use a pet stroller to prevent similar accidents.
