Really? This is what you choose to make a stand on? The guy has a dog, likely with some pitt mix in it, he's proud of his dog, and you are going to invest this much effort in arguing the point?
Do you have a dog? Go take him for a ride, he's feeling neglected, you're spending too much time on the computer.
The vet thought it was a torn cruciate but after testing they said it wasn't $$$$. He was on anti inflammatory for 6 weeks, kinda helped now he's on glucosamine. He only limps for a max of. 30 mins after a ride or the dog park.

Here's our newest addition of the family. 3/4 choco lab, 1/4 husky. Haven't gotten a chance to introduce her to trails yet. Hope to soon
Meet Alexa. Black lab mix, we think with blue heeler based on the white patches on her chest and back paws.
When we rescued her at 3 months:
And now a little older at 6 months:
She's going to be one happy doggy when I start taking her on rides! She is still a bit too young/immature to pay attention. And loose leash training is a prerequisite, I hear.
Time out from biking until stitches removed. No it wasn't a trail booboo. She had a small mast cell tumor removed. Got it early. Diagnosed low grade. Will have to continue to check her for future bumps. I hate how K9s are so susceptible to cancer.
Good luck with the recovery. I know it sucks when dogs get sick/hurt. Mine just tore his ACL. Doc say $2000 to fix him and he won't heal without surgery. Man, that sucks. He loves running and went from being super active every day, to doing nothing all day. that's emotionally tough for a dog as well. Hopefully yours will be on the trail again soon.
Oh man! Good luck to both of your dogs. I see sick and injured people all day and most of the time I think 'wow you should have taken better care of yourself' but when I see an injured pooch I feel soooo bad for them.
Not bike related, but here is my dog Dozer... AKA the hulk!
