Rottweiler puppy Bailey is just 4 weeks old when she arrives at Fitzpatrick Referrals. Born with a deformed front paw, she is in pain and can barely walk.
Her bones are still developing and so she’s too young for most implants, but leaving her to struggle would be a real ethical dilemma and so euthanasia has understandably already been recommended. Mum, Jen, visits Noel hoping for another option to give Bailey a chance at life.
Noel and his team are confronted with a unique and delicate challenge that requires considerable creative thinking. He’s never faced a case quite like this before – but after all – everything’s impossible until it happens. So, Noel and his team and Jen are determined to give Bailey the chance she deserves.
