redmoor 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Is it a crack in the skin? There are a lot of grass seeds getting into feet just now, is it a puncture hole or a cut..can you take a pic and post it up? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marko 30 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 sometimes they just split especially if the dog sees a lot of road work in the past when my lurcher has done it a few wks and as right as rain just keep an eye on it and make sure it stays clean.

J Darcy 5,871 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Hi, IMHO go see a greyhound man. I have had a fractured toe that was healed with Bone Radial... good gear....the bone was soon caloused up and within a month the dog was out and having soft work again. good luck....
