I doesn't look like much is missing, just separated. If you get it a little thinner with a skiving knife and work out the puzzle it should be fixable. I think it will work out OK. Better cut down on the circumference of the foot on that mannikin. Or just cut it off and shape it with Apoxy sculpt.

Hi Rick, lot of it missing.
Look at pic 2 it shows stitchng as far as I can go on back of leg. front of leg at ankle is mostly there but below the ankle to the toes is GONE
what you see is about the closest that it comes together below the ankle.
It's togehter now drying more pics tonight.
It's in a  jumping custom made  pose both front legs are two feet offf the ground no to shave it down, if your talking about shaving the form and still make legs lok same size.
I've dealt with worse, this will make it  OKAY
Thanks

brushwolf, no habitat will used to hide it, the type of pose and base will not work for that.
Pics of completed mount will be posted
Tonight repaired leg and clay work
It will not be finished but you will see where i'm at with it.
