The drover 345 Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) I'd wager its dislocated and popped back in . ( stubbed toe) don't cut nail back . The swelling is nature's way of protecting the injury. The blood inside the toe will eventually form a callous . That toe will be stronger than the other toes if left for 6 weeks . Road walking only. If you run the dog the likelihood of the little bit of bone that cups the other bone will break . Then it's toe off time . Hope this helps . Source a good greyhound vet if you take him . Edited to say . Please do not add heat to that injury. Edited December 27, 2022 by The drover 4 Quote Link to post

TOMO 25,968 Posted December 28, 2022 Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 doesnt look right that inside toe....is it deformed...should be similar length to the outside toe.... if it is deformed that might be why your having an issue with that middle toe 2 Quote Link to post
