Hardfeather 56 Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Took the pup out tonight,caught his second rabbit on the first run,on the second run ripped his dew claw,don't usually have them with dew claws on but didn't plan on having this dog.Is this the start of reoccuring trouble or can they sometimes heal up to be no bother Cheers Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hardfeather 56 Posted September 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Cheers HBG how long did they take to heal I've been told they take ages by some but spoke to my vet on the phone tonight and he reckons they heal within 10 days and he'll be running again within 2 weeks not sure my bill will be as low as £50 though but I'll pay what I have to to see the lad running again trouble free Nice slippers by the way lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AKA-BRINDLE 879 Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 One of my dogs ripped out the same dew claw twice they heal up ok in fact the bloody things grow back i keep em trimmed back real short with a pair of proper dog nail clippers and have had no problem for years dew claws allways look worse than they are and a dog will normally keep the damaged area clean themselves shouldnt really affect their ability to run but best to keep em out of the bushes an under growth until its completely healed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hardfeather 56 Posted September 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 Took him to the vets and he ripped the claw out the dog screamed a bit probably could have done that meself but for £15 I'm not too worried,just hope it doesn't grow back now cheers chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
