Buster’s Bad Break

MILWAUKEE – Buster, a five-month-old Cairn Terrier mix, is currently rehabilitating at the Wisconsin Humane Society (WHS) after likely being hit by a car. Buster was picked up by the Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission (MADACC), who found the little guy running the streets with a broken leg. MADACC took Buster to the Milwaukee Emergency Center for Animals, where it was determined that the Cairn Terrier so severely fractured his femur that specialized surgery was necessary to save his leg. The cost of his surgery and medical care will reach $2,500, which WHS is trying to raise online.

It has only been a few of days since his surgery, but Buster is already recovering like a champ in the safety of the WHS veterinary clinic. After he is fully healed, he will move into our regular adoption program and start life anew with a loving family.
