[music playing] Linda, what you got? So what happened to Rocket? NARRATOR: Dogs big and small
are also having leg issues. I got Roxie here. I think she might
have a broken leg. He has a cut right here. It looks like the skin came off. Oh, let's see what we got. MAN: Put your mask on. Come on in. OK. Let's put her on the
scale for a minute. OK. Oh, man, you're chubby. Yeah, she is. 13 and 1/2. LINDA: Wow. Whoa. Yeah, not too bad yet. No, it's not broke. All right. It's easy to find that
there is no broken leg. The leg is not swinging,
and there is no capitation. No, it's not out
of place either. Huh. Because see, they're
both the same length. Yeah, I thought so, too. The legs are the same
length, so you know that there is no dislocation in the hip. But it hurts. Mhm. Feel that muscle
right there, how hard that is compared to this one. So I think that she
basically sprained it. Mhm. OK, I'm going to
give her a shot. OK. I'm going to put
her on pain pills. LINDA: All right. DR. POL: I'll be
right back, Linda. Hi, Rocket. Hi, bud. CODY BAUER: We're
here because Rocket had a laceration on his leg. NICOLE ARCY: Yeah, it's
a whole bunch of licking. OK. I am not sure what
would have caused that. He plays outside a
lot so it could have been anything from out there. Oh, OK. Buddy. Rocket is a big dog, and he's
showing me who's in charge. Who wants to help
me with rocket? I need help. WOMAN: Oh, hi, bud. Oh, my god, Rocket. Little mini horse. NARRATOR: It's going to
take six hands to control all 124 pounds of Rocket. So if you can stop
him from backing up. Mhm. Ugh. Looks like there's some
pus coming out of there. Its basically a scab, and
I need to take it off. [yelp] It's a bad sprain. Hopefully that over the
weekend it will be better. All right, will do. Outlook, of
course, is very good. Most of the time these heal
up usually within a week. NARRATOR: Roxie's all set. The Doc's always got time to
catch up with an old friend. How are you doing? Linda's been with
us for, I don't know how many years already, too. Look at this. That's your number. Oh. Single digit clients. Single digit
customer number, which means I started coming here not
too long after he opened up. If we get new clients
[inaudible] 27,000. Oh, my goodness. I've been through
a lot with you. Yeah. Yeah. I've been coming here
30-something years. I'm very happy with Dr. Pol. Thanks, Linda. This is what I peeled
off of him really quickly. Scab with a whole bunch
of pus underneath it. That's why it hurt. Like ripping off
a Band-Aid, huh? OK, I'm gonna wrap it
so he doesn't lick it. Even though dogs
lick because they think they're healing something,
Rocket cannot lick his wound. Styling, huh? Let's go, bud. Rocket is gonna go home
on some antibiotics and anti-inflammatories
because we need to make sure we get all
that pus and infective material out of there. He did very good. He's such a sweetie. It looked like it was an
abscess that had kind of opened, or he chewed or licked it open. Rocket's gonna do just great. We cleaned up his wound, and now
it's just up to the antibiotics to take control. CODY BAUER: You get
all fixed up, boo-boo? [music playing]
