Are you honestly suggesting you leave broken toes to set by themselves? How do you know they are broken? Are they dislocated maybe? I've seen the results of broken toes left to heal by themselves: and it ain't pretty, and the dog won't run very well ever again! Get dog to a vet asap.

Take it to the vets mate. It's a broken toe, not a gaping wound from a fox. The vet will do his job, maybe tell you to leave the dog off the running until the ground isn't so hard. But a broken toe isn't anything to be paranoid about. Better safe than sorry. A toe is quite important on a running dog.
