my dog has damaged a toe and is constantly lame for days now. The vet I have used for over 20 years has just retired and he was fantastic with feet.Went to a local vet , they said it needed an X ray, £ 150 quid.
Does anyone know of a decent foot specialist in my area. Im 20 minutes from liverpool, 45 from Manchester.

If your dog jumps a toe cut the nail right back strait away to relieve the pressure, then get a cold hose on it a few times a day to take the swelling down. Then get it to a reputable vet.
