Default broken fibula

hello everyone

my 4 month old beagle today broke his fibula... it's a clean break but
it's up slightly too high for a cast/splint but it's a possibility.

the vet also mentioned that surgery is the best option but the costs
involved are pretty high. we're talking in the thousands apparently.
a splint/cast might work but if it fails, surgery is the only option.

has anyone else had any experience with broken bones and such with
their dogs? any advice or tips?

thanks for reading,
ed - edmonton, AB
