Ugh... yes Buddy hurt his foot AGAIN!!

My hubby just called, he got home from work and let the dogs out of their crates and somehow Buddy managed to get his foot stuck in the crate.

(Because Buddy is still afraid of my hubby, flips out and runs out of his crate as fast as he can)

Well... his foot was stuck and he couldn't get it out on his own, so Rick stepped towards him and reached towards his foot to help him and all that did was make Buddy flip out even more. So all Rick could do was walk out of the room and let him work it out on his own and he did. Now he bleeding and limping and of COURSE it's the same foot I just took stitches out a week ago today!!!!

I don't get off work for about an hour, so for now he's back in his crate (so he doesn't bleed all over the house again) and I get to play Dr. again when I get home.

Oh Bud....

[Alysser]

Aw, I'm sorry to hear this. Buddy, what are we going to do with you? Please keep us updated.

[joycenalex]

awww buddy! get better and stay better puppy.

[Ginger's Mom]

Oh d@*#. I am so sorry, Angie. Buddy, you have got to calm down, sweetie. There are two many people who care about you.

[Anita Cholaine]

Aww, poor boy! I'm so sorry to hear this. Please keep us updated.

[pitc9]

Well.. first of all, it's not the same foot that I just took the stitches out.

He tore his nail out.... *blech* the entire thing...
I gagged when I saw his foot then spotted the nail sitting on the floor.
That was a first!

He's not even limping!!!
He's wrapped up and is fine!

I've added pictures.... and I'm letting you know that it's NOT PRETTY!!!!

I put a quarter next to it so you could see how big it is.

[joycenalex]

WOWSA!!!!! thats awful!!! poor baby!!! and poor angie

[Jessika]

Whoaaaaaa Buddy!! Ouch I must admit I winced when looking at those pictures. That had to have HURT!!! I'm just glad he's bandaged up and hopefully he starts calming down a bit now. Get better, Buddy!!

[Pam]

Oh Buddy and Oh Angie!! Poor both of you! I know that had to hurt. I am sending you kisses for your boo-boo across the miles. Angie, actually the pictures were not as bad as I expected, although the nail picture sort of made me wince. Buddy, please be a good boy. You are turning into your own worst enemy!

[chocolatepuppy]

Oh no, poor Buddy. You have to be more careful sweetie.

[pitc9]

Yes, seeing the nail laying on the floor for the first time was what got me.


Oh man... I feel so bad for him, it HAS to hurt like H@ll, but he not acting like it hurts at all!

I know there's nothing I can do for him except to keep it covered until it closes up and stops bleeding. But I wish there was something I could do.

Pam, you are SO right!! He IS his own worst enemy!

[crow_noir]

Ugh!!! BUDDY!!! You're supposed to be a good boy and stay safe. *sigh* Do we need to get a padded room for you while your humans are out?!

---

So is Buddy considered partially declawed now? I couldn't quite tell if there'd be anything left in the paw for the nail to regrow. Poor guy. *healing vibes*

[K9karen]

*Gags for a second at picture of nail/quarter* WOW! WOW! Poor baby boy. Oh sweet pumpkin, what a mess! You gave yourself a nice ultra manicure, huh? Now, keep the sock on like a good pup.
I remember Cody tore off his dewclaw once and it freaked me out, more from the action of doing it, then the sight. Once he was fixed up, he seemed fine too, but wasn't appreciative of the 'ole sock thingy.
