Paul J W 15 Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 just after a bit of advice please lads. His knuckles always seem to be quite prominent, he's only just 10 months now so is still young. I don't push him, he just free runs 2 or 3 times a day for about 20-30 min and then a good hour about 8:30 once its cooled down. So the question is do his legs look OK for his age and amount of exercise he gets? Quote Link to post

Paul J W 15 Posted August 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 Dirty scum bags who live in our block have been throwing glass bottle over there balconies and just leaving brocken glass everywhere. Took the pup down for a quick toilet break and bit of fresh air and he has sliced the Web between pads. I shit myself to be honest with the amount of blood. Luckily enough I got the bleeding to stop and thoroughly cleaned his foot, no glass left in the wound. Poor dog is limping around now and just won't leave my side, thats no problem to me, he's like my shadow 24/7. Think ill bag all his shite up now and fling it at there windows. Why people do this to tjere home is beyond me Quote Link to post
Shadow100 1,066 Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) If it’s a bad one on the webbing I’d get it to the vets ASAP and get it stitched, it can take ages to heal and can sometimes open back up if it’s not healed right.

Its just a small nick to be honest it looks a lot worse than it was with the amount of blood and its closed back over by itself. He's just feeling sorry for himself now lol. Thanks for the advice, appreciate it. Quote Link to post

If it’s only a little nick probably be fine, if you’re near the beach I’d lead walk him in the salt water every day works wonders for the healing. 5 1 Quote Link to post

sandymere 8,263 Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 If it doesn't heal get the vet to cut the web back in a half moon behind the cut. Then there's no tear to keep opening. 2 1 Quote Link to post
