Tayto had to go into the vet for an extreme manicure.... AKA a toe nail

On Saturday Tayto hurt himself while playin at agility class.
Not on the equipment mind you....
AFTER class was done...
He was playing chase with my friends dogs. Tayto was being the "chasie" which he prefers. They were having a grand time... then Tayto decided foolishly that the best was to shake his 70lb pursuer was to fake left the turn around and trip up the assailant by running directly under him.
That did not work out so well, and somehow he snagged a nail and pulled it a good part of the way off.
<cringe> after stopping the gusher I took him home and called the vet, they told me to hold off til Monday to see how he was.

So... this morning 6:20am.... it was still weeping and bleeding a bit SO... I called my vet back and they took Tayto for the day. They removed his nail the rest of the way and gave him a "lumpy foot", which he is none to thrilled about. Poor lil man.

He is doing good, the lumpy wrap comes off tomorrow.


As you can see he is less than amused with his new lumpy foot.
