Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Beagle / Mixed (medium coat). Francis is a 1 yr old neutered Lab mix who fractured his 5th metacarpal bones (bones just below his wrist) on both front limbs. The specialty center is doing a staged procedure to place hardware to help the fractures heal. He had one of the procedures already and is due to the next one in about 1 week. He is in splints/bandages currently.The surgical recovery period is estimated to be about 6-8 weeks. At this time of the recovery, he is required to have strict cage rest with no running, jumping, playing and leash walks only to go to the bathroom. He will also need his splints/bandages changed regularly. As he progresses in the recovery, he will most likely need some physical therapy but he is not there yet.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Labbe, an increasingly popular designer dog breed, is a delightful mix of the outgoing Beagle and the loyal Labrador Retriever. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of both parents, Labbes are known for their medium size, typically weighing between 30-70 pounds, and possessing a sturdy, athletic build. Their coats are usually short and dense, varying in color like their Lab parents, and their ears often retain the Beagle's charming flop. Temperamentally, Labbes are renowned for being friendly, intelligent, and generally good-natured, making them excellent family pets that thrive on companionship. While adaptable, their moderate energy levels mean they benefit from regular exercise and are best suited for homes with yards, although they can adapt to apartment living with sufficient outdoor activity. Potential health considerations, inherited from their parent breeds, can include hip and elbow dysplasia, ear infections, and certain eye conditions, making responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups crucial for these engaging companions.
