Id try a decent bone man / or a specialist running dog vet if I were you. Most run of the mill anit really got a clue at what there looking at in this detail.

 

 

 

Even just talk to one over the phone... I'll pm you Robert Meeks number if you want he's in Staffordshire

Either go to see a good bone man or find a good greyhound vet in your area sounds like it could be an idea to get it pin fired although I would try and see a bone man first and he will most likely put u on track

it sounds like nail bed infection that's got out of hand you need some strong antibiotics and clean twice a day with hydrogen peroxide use a shrings breake needle off so you can get it right in to where its to go good luck
