    Hey SS,

    Thought I'd had a naff day, but it seems to have paled in comparison now.

    Keep your chin up, hope Woofer is ok.

    Thanks jmf. :)

    Woofer will lap up all the fuss and attention so will no doubt be fine! :rolleyes: :p

    Hi mudbath. :)

    Sorry to hear about your woof! :( But they're resilent little sods animals aren't they? If it was us we'd be moaning for weeks. They just get on with it!

    I know he'll be alright if he has the toe off. I'm just worried that the infection has spread further. I wish the vet hadn't told me that bit.

    I don't think he was insuating it had spread, just that it'd be better to remove the toe rather than risk losing the leg. But you can't stop you're mind going into overdrive can you?

    Please never mention QVC on this thread again! :naughty::p

    Paint a wall and watch it dry Mudbath - it's cheaper and often more interesting than what your watching ;)

    Your dog will be fine - only reasons toes etc get amputated is the blood flow round them isn't great - legs are a different kettle of fish.
