Miniature dachshund Pichu was born with a split paw and six toes making it painful to weight-bear limiting her ability to run and move.
Mum, Mary, worried about the limited choices for treatment closer to home, travels all the way from Northern Ireland to Fitzpatrick Referrals, looking for another option.
Professor Noel Fitzpatrick lays out Pichu’s options, including a never tried before potential paw saving reconstruction, but as Pichu’s condition is not life-threatening, her family must decide if surgery is the right choice for their furry family member.
