ty! darling hobbit ... she's an unhappy pup. she got a stick or something stabbed into her paw at the weekend, and she's really limping, as in can hardly put her foot to the floor. there's a hole in her pad about 1/2 cm across. but she's still bouncy. should I just antiseptic it etc until its better? And just take her to the vet if it gets infected / hot / nasty?
3:59 am
Kazzer99
if it was me i would prbably take her to the vet - there may be some small bits still inside
3:59 am
Kazzer99
bye doug
4:00 am
FranMag
poor puppy!
4:00 am
Haz1558
I take it you have looked to see if there is the remains of the stick in the paw? Keep bathing it with antiseptic solution but if it does become hot and she gets more unhappy I would take her to the vet.
4:01 am
Buttonman

4:02 am
Haz1558
Buttonman - it's a vocal expression of disgust.

Good morning Eva.
5:45 am
Scrabbler
Hi Eva. I thought of you on Saturday when I sunk in the snow up to my thighs, but I didn't lose my boots. It was hard to extricate myself
5:46 am
Eva
have you had any more roof avalanches Scrabbler?
5:46 am
Scrabbler
Yes, more snow has come down, but not like the enormous one. We had a snow day here yest--well, the schools were closed, but I had to work.
5:48 am
Eva
Driving back from town yesterday the winds created white out conditions. I had to just stop in the middle of the road, because I couldn't tell where the road was, and just hope, since I was on a back road, that no one would run into me. Right now it is -8 degrees, and it was supposed to only be one day, but overnight the changed it to 3 days.
5:49 am
6a
hi eva - harrowing.
5:50 am
Eva
hi 6a. Think I'll saty home today.
5:50 am

There were whiteouts when I drove home last night--scary! We are at 6 degrees now.
5:50 am

Morning - Eva, we had a taste of that here too yesterday - same storm. This morning right now it's 13 below zero with wind chill. The wind is quite strong. Without wind chill it's 2 degrees.
