slipt nail

Morning all

This happed friday 14/03/14

I have 2 year old female staffy other day there i was up stairs cleaning the bedroom's the youngest one Marley was next to me like she all ways is when am up moving about in the house i noticed her bk right paw was of the floor had to look twice and me been me i paniced lol,I phoned my other half paul as i thought she had broke her leg so he came home he phone the vet stright away . we got a appointment stright away so got marley in to her harrness in to the car and up to the vets,we waited 15 mins to see the vet while Marley was letting the other dog's hear her wee high pitch noises   ofcourse we were getting the look's from people who no nothing off these dog's plus the vet's is within the pet shop so rather busy with been a friday afternoon...

So by this time Marely was a we bit stressed out finally the vet came to take us in to the room,he checked Marley all over pulling and lifting her wee leg right up so could tell nothing was broke till i picked her right paw up touched one of her pads by then Marley was hiding her face in my chest poor we thing was scared/sore but the vet could see that she had split her nail right up as her nail's on her back paws are very low with the way she dart's about and scraping..So that's why she could not walk right the vet said leave it few days see if nail grows out bit and if she puts her paw but failing that she will need to go back in and go under and get her nail cut off up to the bone OUCH so hopefully all will be great in a few day's....

Hope she makes a speedy recovery   

me to jstaff think she is bored being in the house been out in back garden 4 times since friday witch not like her think she no's she has split nail cause when she did go out she was on the mud her bk right paw was up my other half paul past 2 nigth had to lift her up stairs to bed but the day she came down the stairs on her own so thats gd sign

Aww bless her, hope it heals on its own. Daisy ripped one of her back nails last year and I just rested her for a few days and kept it clean by bathing with salt water and it did heal xx

Aww I hope she has a quick recovery, poor girlie

i have been doing that with salt water half the time she thinks she is getting her nails cut lol she hates any one going near her paws fussy madam she is lol xx hope so to hayley xx

Bless her, I think I have lost count the amount of times Moo has split her claw! I am sure it will heal up soon, was it the dew claw? x
