terryd 8,470 Posted October 14, 2024 Report Share Posted October 14, 2024 The outside toe is a weight bearing toe apparently which makes sense so vets are reluctant to take them off. For a pet dog it’s not huge issue you would imagine. For a worker though who knows but you will find people who have had them off and fine and others where things have gone down hill. You got watch vets now a days they blatantly like to make money though there are some good ones. You sort of have to tell them what you want done. An X-ray takes lot of the guess work out but that’s no cheap exercise either now a days 3 Quote Link to post
yanib 4 Posted October 14, 2024 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2024 I've tried to get a second opinion from this guy: GREYHOUND TOE INJURIES | Dr. Mike Guilliard WWW.MIKEGUILLIARD.CO.UK He is suggesting the fixator and removal of the nail and saying that it works most of the time. Just waiting to see what he is charging. We did have an xray originally and it wasn't broken just dislocated. This is what he says about the fixator option: The application of an external fixator across the joint, applied to either the top joint (metacarpal/tarsal phalangeal) or middle joint (P1/P2) gives predictable excellent results with minimal surgical interference. The fixator is left in place for three weeks and the dog returned to training seven weeks from the initial surgery. The principle behind this treatment is that if the joint is held in its normal position for a period of time scar tissue replaces the torn ligaments and provides sufficient support. I've gone back with a load more questions so will see what he says. Quote Link to post
