    What a morning!

    First Rocky is fine.
    20 minutes before I was to leave
    for work, I went outside
    to fill up the water bowls.
    (Rocky had only been outside for 1/2 hour)
    I noticed Rocky laying down licking his paw.
    Their was blood on the cement patio.
    Blood was comming from his nail.
    I got the Quik stop and applied it to his
    nail and it stopped bleeding.
    I noticed the nail was away from the skin.
    Yuck! The vet saw him at 9:00 a.m.
    and said Rocky had to stay.
    His nail was split all the way down to
    the base.
    I was worried because he had eaten his breakfast and they had to put him under to remove his nail.
    Their is a hole in his paw now, but the vet
    said his nail will grow back again.
    Poor Rocky, the first thing he did when he
    got home was pee and pee and pee.
    He than bumped his head on some furniture
    and almost fell twice. He is very
    groggy. I have to keep him in the house
    for the next 24 hours.
    He is now sleeping.
    Why do these thing always seem to happen
    right before work.

    Poor little Thing! It's good that he'll be o.k. :-) Another litttle thing... If he ever bleeds on his toenails again, use Cornpowder! It works MUCH beteer then quik stop.

    OUCH! Poor Rocky. Glad he is going to be okay!

    Things always happen right before work or when you are all dressed up and ready to leave for an event for me too! Somebody's (Can't remember who) law says that's just the way it is!

    Poor Rocky I didn't know that their nails grew back after they were removed. Anyway, good luck keeping him relaxed and keeping him from using that foot too much for a few days

    Dogs really do have a knack for doing something that requires your time right before you leave for work. About a month ago, right before work I took Graham for his last potty before I left, and he thought it might be fun to roll in something smelly . He got his wish, I had to go in late to work because I was bathing my dog so the smelly did not spread throughout the house

    I hope Rocky does OK, and I hope your job understands that the dogs come first

    Aww, poor Rocky! I hope he feels better soon.

    Why is it that we have had 3 Pet Talkers injured this week?

    Poor Rocky - we all know how awful it is to have a hangnail - this is much worse! Hope he feels better soon!

    Funny you should mention the peeing... when we had Paula for about a month, we took her in to get probed for a possible vaginal infection. She was sedated but not put out cold. When Joe brought her home, she stood there in the living room, looked at him, and squatted to make a HUGE puddle! Then she proceeded to stumble through the house, bumping into things! She wasn't herself again until the next morning.

    KYS,
    Think that's what is called "Murphys Law".
    Sicknesses or accidents always seem to happen
    1)The humans are rushing off to work.
    2)Your about to leave on a long awaited vacation trip.
    3)Just because it's Friday night after 5pm,
    and the Vets office won't be open till Mon.

    Hope Rocky is feeling better SOON !!!

    Oh Rocky, I can imagine how much that hurt. It's amazing how dogs just go on with the pain, sometimes one would never know. Our Vet told us Schnauzers are that way, they will never let you know if they are sick or in pain. Thank goodness the Vet took care of Rocky's boo boo and now he can kick back and enjoy the good life. Get better Rocky and treats, hugs and kisses to you.
