    It looks awful but no puss or swelling so I guess we just have to wait for the antibiotics to kick in xxx

    I could weep for him , he has had so much to cope with this year and we have been so very vigilant with this nail malarky . I wont take him out today, he is pretty zoned out with painkiller and the antibiotic shot , so he can stay home, stay warm xx

    Oh dear , Reuben has an infection in the nail bed . Vet has cleaned it up and is reluctant to wrap it again, rather to let air to it . He has had an antibiotic injection and another course to take, back on Monday morning xx

    Feeling very sorry for himself xx I will put the dreaded plastic bag over his bandage and take him on lead walk for ten minutes as he is reluctant to have a :poo: on the garden . I think he will feel better once the bandage has been taken off on Friday morning xx

    Unfortunately , not much sleep was had , I was expecting it as he always reacts to GA . However, in true Labrador style , he has eaten a good breakfast :nod:

    This evening we have a little whimpering which I expected as he usually reacts to GA . I have to put a plastic bag over the bandage when he goes outside as it must be kept as dry as possible but he hates it . We are off to bed very soon , hoping he will settle on the bed with me , bless xx
