From the looks of those arrows in the target, she must have been a shooter!

It always sucks when they break!

Sorry about your pooch too!

Sorry for your loss, I had to put down our lab 1-1/2yrs ago. We miss him.
As far as your Martin, there are epoxy's and glues today that could put her back together, however I don't think she'll shoot the same again.
I think the best thing would be to, pick a spot on the wall and hang her up in a place of honor.

That is a bad run, for sure.  Take it from another man that loves his bows and his dogs.  Hang that bow on the wall, and cherish the short time left with your dog. Bows are replaceable, good dogs very often are not.  So sorry.

Thanks for the kind words .And  that's what I'm going to do is to glue the bow back together and hang it up .And yes it was a tack driver. On my dog she's a Belgium Malinois and has been a loyal and faithful family member for 14 years . well got to go taking foxie to the sonic for a small dish of ice cream .         and thanks for all your kind words

We've lost 2 K-9s in the last year, my condolences.
