My foot and photos that are gross, but in a GOOD way.

Howdy Everybuddy

On 16 December 2014 if you remember, I had infected nail beds and had to go to the vet.  Well after the vet visit, that night I again chewed my nails and also chewed a hole in my toe.  Gross I know, but that's what I did.  Anyhoo, we have found since that my left foot is, well, paralysed, and I have no feeling in it at all.  I can still walk on it but I sort of swing my leg forwards in a wonky sort of way.  I had my hole stitched up once the infection had cleared and it has helped even though the stitches have now come out (they were supposed to).

So, believe it or not, tonight when mum was cleaning my wound (and she does this every 24 or 48 hours) she thought some of you, some of you poor, poor fellas, might want to see what it's like. 
She's coo coo in the head we keep tellin' ya.

If you don't want to see, scroll down with your eyes shut and for those that want to look, we hope you don't spew afterwards.  Mum says it's not that bad but she is just glad it's not a hole anymore.

Get ready.
Here you go.

I wear the cone of shame every single night now and have a bandage on my bad foot, covered with a boot and also a boot on my right foot even though that is ok.  Mum is taking no chances.  

I told mum, promised her in fact, that 2015 is our GOOD year.  No more chewing cause it's a GOOD year.   Yep, my foot will heal and she won't have to bandage anymore.  Just put on the boot and that's all.  So everybuddy, we consider this to be a GOOD post.  Yep, GOOD because my foot is healing beautifully.  My Vet, Ms Anna said so and she is proud of me for being such a GOOD BOY when we go and see her.  

So mates, it's all GOOD here.  We hope it's GOOD at your place too.  It might not be perfect but for us GOOD is just fine.

Take care and see ya later alligator.

No worries, and LOVE, 
Stella (a GOOD dog) and Rory (a GOOD dog too)

  20. Rory, of course you're a good dog, but Mum keeps your foot under wraps so you can't be tempted to be a not good dog. I hope it heals well for you and Mum (who has to tend it).

  26. It is wonderful news that your foot is healing so well. Thanks to your mum who keeps it clean and protected. 2015 IS going to be a good year but you must let things thoroughly heal before doing anything crazy! Soft woos of White Dog healing energies continue.
