PEG LEG

Please don't act surprised to hear that the mastiff Cidney has been to see the vet again. What might you ask happened this time? She broke her toe. How might you ask did this happen? Have no idea. She did eat crap off the deck and I was sure that she blew her neck out and treated her for that. A round of antbiotics and pain meds later, day 2 her foot was still swolen so to the vet we went. I was suspicious her foot might be broke at this point now. X-ray one told the tale. Lateral break in her toe. Critters are lucky cuz humans suffer with broken toes. Critters get to wear a cast all the way up to their elbow for 2 weeks till it heals. Into day 2 of the cast she broke the thing in half and had to go get another one. So now it's back to packing her 88 pound butt up and down the stairs. I giggle cuz the sound of her thumping around the house is not mistakable. Skyler's friend D started calling her peg leg. I told him to bad it wasn't close to Halloween, put a patch over her eye and she could be a pirate!
