HEARTBREAKING Greg Rutherford sparks concern as he reveals his family is going through a ‘s*** time’ after Dancing On Ice injury
GREG Rutherford has sparked concern after revealing that his family is going through a ‘s*** time’ after his horrible Dancing On Ice injury.
The 37-year-old, who had to pull out of the final of the ITV show due to an injury, recently revealed that one of his beloved family members had fallen ill.
Greg took to Instagram to share that his beloved dog Gus was refused a life-saving operation - and wanted a second opinion.
This morning Greg shared a snap of some blueberry pancakes on his story.
Greg told his 197k fans on the social media platform: "We've having a s*** time as a family at the moment so I'm cooking through it.
"Thanks for all your well wishes."Last night the star said: "Thanks for all the help yesterday. Gus is being cared for by @daviesvetspecialists who so many of you recommended and while we don't know how it'll play out, we're so grateful he's being looked after."
Greg shared the devastating news about his pooch yesterday.
The Olympian explained that he had noticed changes in Gus' behaviour and wanted to go and get him checked out.
Greg wrote over the top: "Sorry to use Insta as Google but always prefer recommendations etc for this sort of thing."We got home to find out our lovely Gus is poorly. A visit to our local vet showed he has a mass on his spleen that can be operated on.
"He's lethargic and not quite himself, which is why we knew something was wrong. Normally he behaves like a pup!"The star continued: "The vets we visited were quite quick to say oh well ... we don't know he'll survive the operation to remove it.
"Unfortunately the vet who previously knew Gus well left, so it kind of feels like they're going off the back of locums seeing him and how he is at the moment."
He then asked if anyone could offer any advice about the matter.
He said: "Does anyone local to us have any suggestions of where we could take him for a second opinion?
"Vet's have called this morning & confirmed they're not happy to operate, but yet again it's a new locum who hasn't actually seen him.
"In no way moaning about them, we just want to give our normally very healthy dog a chance :("
After asking for help, he opened up about his siberian husky's beautiful relationship with his young daughter Daphne.
"Daphne and her best doggy friend.
"Gus is such a wonderful boy. So patient with her and constantly following Daphne around giving her kisses.
"These moments always make me so happy… and as with the second photo, always make me laugh."
Greg missed out on winning this year's Dancing On Ice after an accident just hours before going live.Earlier this month he showed off his scar and swelling for the operation he had after slashing his stomach open.
Days before Greg sparked concern after 'vanishing' from social media after his stomach surgery.
