Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

I just got home from dinner which was lovely. Came in the door where Flynn was clambering to see me and trod on his foot! :eek: he let out quite a yelp. Had a good look at it and it seems to be quite red, looks like he has been licking it and is a bit inflamed :mad: have put some cream on it to soothe it... don't think it was clumsy me as did not stand on his paw that hard to make it immediately red!

Awwww, poor Flynn.

Flynn says thanks Valerie :D:D Your up late too!!

I just put him on the bed under the bright lights and it cannot just be me stepping on him as the skin under the fur and between the webbing of his littlest toe is quite red. He was already trying to lick off the cream I put on it so now I have put a wee bit on a little gauze and put a small sticky bandage around it. So now he is hopping around like his leg has been cut off! He wanted outside so let him out and he scuttled around and was laying in the dark on the lawn, trying to get out of my sight so he could nibble it off!! Now he is back inside under my watchful gaze :) I don't think it is serious but its obviously bothering him, maybe he stood on something sharp on his walk this morning.

Make sure that nothing is stuck in between his toes. Poor thing. I am laughing about the hopping around :-)

I was sleeping. Woke up with a bloody nose. Tis the season.

There was a small dark spot in between his toes, I tried to separate his toes and he kicked me with his back foot the little beggar, told him to cut that right out!! He just needed a little reminding I am the alpha and he has to lie there and be good when I am examining his paw, its for his own good afterall! I could not see any broken skin or thorns. Will have another good look in the light of day! I bet that bandage will be off by the morning, he just skulked back to his bed!

That's no good about the bloody nose, do you get them often? Bugger when you have trouble sleeping at the best of times, when you are finally asleep something like that happens!! We better check your BP too!

I get them in the winter months. Home heating does a job on my fragile/annoying sinuses.
Sometimes, if something is stuck in there a soak in warm water will expand the object and it will pop right out. This works for slivers of wood especially.

Will see if the cream draws anthing out overnight, then give it a soak! He did walk in that mucky dried out muddy stream last night, could have picked up god knows what in there, his legs under his knees were black.

Ugh, what a mess he must've been :-)
Daisy is so prissy, she doesn't like to be dirty or wet. She will climb snow mountains and sink in which is hilarious to watch.

Oh yes that constant heating then in and out of freezing weather would dry me out too! You need a humidifier :)

Yes he was one mucky pup... surprised me as he hates water too, but I think he smelt some little furry creature, maybe a rat down there so off he went, the great explorer!! He got hosed off on the lawn, that black legged dog was not coming in my house!
