Oh no Calvert! What bad luck

Hopefully it isn't something major, and he'll be able to recover soon. I know that both of my dogs have had minor paw issues in the past. My golden licks her feet, so she wasn't really new to the whole "limping" idea. And since my corgi, in the past, hated our old nail trimmers, his nails would grow longer than they should, so they would break on occasion. We've transition to a dremel though, that helped with nail trimming anxiety.

I hope Calvert gets better, and that whatever is wrong with his paw is simple and heals quickly. That must be rough, I guess a few more days of resting.

Oh no...I'm sorry to hear that Calvert had a mishap during his recovery.  Thank goodness he won't need another major procedure to correct it...just cleaned up and stitched.  Although I know the worry that comes along with our babies being put under anesthesia...I didn't like doing that to Leland.

The trick now will be keeping Calvert calm and easy going until the stitches come out and his paw is healed.

Sorry Calvert but it definitely sounds like you may have to wear the "cone of shame " for a bit.  Oh...just as a side note if the cone freaks him out (it can mess with a dog's peripheral vision) they do make inflatable doughnuts (as I like to call it) that may work.  I had picked one up for Leland at my local Petsmart and he didn't seem to mind it as much as the cone.

Good luck Calvert and "try" to stay out of trouble for the next few days until the stitches come out of that paw!!
