Gonzo broke his toe in Thursday ... apparently while playing frizbee by the lake, I think he must've caught a nail in some of the brush. I noticed him licking his paw and he hasn't had allergies this year (probably due to Raw) but they usually do spark up in the Summer. I assumed he had maybe been licking/chewing excessively because there was some dry blood around the digit. So I called the Vet and got an appointment for today. I was looking more closely yesterday, and I realized his nail was crooked on that toe, and there was puss coming out, and it was swollen to twice the size it was supposed to be.

He got x-rays today, and he broke some ligaments around the nail, and the toe is not "broken", but it's very sprained. He's on antibiotics, anti-swelling meds, and pain meds (Cephalexin & Carprofen), and I have to soak his paw in epsom salt several times a day. WORST OF ALL, he can't play with Fozzie or run, which is so hard. =( Poor kiddo. He's really drowsy, and he's supposed to wear an e-collar to prevent licking, but I would rather just watch him because Fozzie thinks the e-collar is an exciting new toy. :<
