Traumatic Injuries

Canine traumatic injuries refer to physical injuries that result from sudden, forceful impact or trauma to a dog's body. These injuries can range from mild to severe and may affect various parts of the body, including bones, muscles, joints, and internal organs. Some examples of canine traumatic injuries include:

Fractures: Fractures occur when a bone breaks due to direct trauma or excessive force. Common types of fractures in dogs include simple fractures, compound fractures (where the broken bone pierces through the skin), and greenstick fractures (where the bone bends and cracks but does not break completely).

Soft Tissue Injuries: Soft tissue injuries involve damage to muscles, ligaments, tendons, or other connective tissues. These injuries can result from blunt force trauma, lacerations, or overexertion. Common soft tissue injuries in dogs include strains, sprains, contusions, and tendon or ligament tears.
