Abstract
A 1 year 4 months old, male Poodle was presented with a history of non weight bearing lameness and pain of the right forelimb by trauma. Orthopedic examination and radiographs were revealed medial shoulder luxation and scapular fracture. Biceps tendon was translocated to the lesser tubercle and secured to the humerus. Despite of it could be a potential cause of degenerative change of the joint, a favorable result was achieved for more than 3 years follow-up.
