De Vine Farm's CaitlynDOB: 10/6/90, fawn Died: 11//92 fused elbow, recurring infections Sire: Ch. Willowledge Brett Dam: Old School Peersleigh Muffin, OFA good Caitlyn had a wonderful temperament, like her sire, and was always happy and friendly. She developed OCD in her knee at 3 1/2 months and had surgery at four months. She also had Ununited Anconeal Process (UAP) in both elbows. The first sign that she had UAP was a slight puffiness on the outside of her elbows and a limp which became progressively worse at around 6 to 8 months of age. She had surgery on both elbows to remove the anchoneal which had failed to unite. The surgeries were successful and she healed and was sound for a while. Unfortunately Caitlyn developed a chronic joint infection which made her joints fuse. She was put to sleep just before she turned two. It was a very very sad day for those who loved her.
