My oopsy

Mom swears that every time she goes on vacation, something happens to one of us pups!

When my husky brudder was a baby still, he slipped past our neighbor's legs into his basement, and went to town on the rat potion box (I think I told you guyz this).

Well, this time Me, Cal, Anya, and my big sis Savannah stayed home with human gramma (Aero and husky brudder stayed with two of mom's coworkers-I heard they had the time of their lives!! Aero had lots of land to run on, and Tekoa went hiking up in Wisconsin!! I'm so jealous!)

Well, towards the end of my time alone with human gramma, she was walking me outside, and I got one of my toenails caught on something. I cried and yanked it free before gramma could even think of what to do. Gramma told mom what happened but when mom got home she saw that my toenail was turned 90 degrees to the side and bleeding near the base.

Mom could tell I was in pain cuz I was limping and licking it.

So I had to go to the evil man in the white coat. . .=_=
He told mom that I might've fractured my toe (mom knew I hadn't cuz otherwise, I wouldn't have been standing on that foot at all right?!), but just to be safe, she let the dogter take an x-ray. Needless to say, I was fracture free!

The dogter finally saw the bleeding near the base of my nail, and that it was cracked. So finally he came to the conclusion that mommy had brought me to the vet for originally: to cut the bad nail off.

Mom wasn't able to be with me back there. I was so scared that I. . . . . . .
. . . . .
. . . . .
Okay, I'll admit it!
X( I peed on myself o-_-o
None too proud of that.

But the nice dogters gave me a bath to freshen me back up.

They cut the nail pretty close to the bed, but not all the way. Mom was thinking that the nail would just grow back from there.
But eventually, the whole nail came off.

Where my toenail was is now just a fleshy, raw stub.

So now mom is wondering if my nail will even grow back at all.

I don't think I'd mind only have 3 nails on my foot, but mom doesn't seem too happy. She says she loves me through and through, she just feels it's a shame that I had to endure this.

It's not gramma's fault that I misplaced my foot, but I think mom wonders what will happen when she takes her next vacation. . . . .
I don't want to tell her that it's our secret mission to keep mom at home all the time! ^_~

Not limping but feelin' old,
