jjbel 0 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 I bought a lurcher dog a few weeks back just for a bit of lamping, because the ground has been quite hard I have only taken him out a few times, the last time about 10 days ago, after the last run I saw the dog had broken his toenail off on his back foot 2nd nail in, it was bleeding so when I got home I cleaned it and put an antiseptic spray (violet) onit and have repeated it every other day. He can run ok but sometimes he will hold the foot up, there looks to be no infection. What should the healing time be on this sort of injury... 3 weeks? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
