I'd wager its dislocated and popped back in . ( stubbed toe) don't cut nail back . The swelling is nature's way of protecting the injury. The blood inside the toe will eventually form a callous . That toe will be stronger than the other toes if left for 6 weeks . Road walking only. If you run the dog the likelihood of the little bit of bone that cups the other bone will break . Then it's toe off time . Hope this helps . Source a good greyhound vet if you take him . Edited to say . Please do not add heat to that injury. -
Its contract work . Bale up , move on .

Only a good biocide would kill it off

Just like to add . The contractors were in cutting the hay 2 weeks ago . Is that coincidence. I think not , when you read up on RHVD . This awful disease is so transmit able and clings to any surface.

Moocher , unfortunately its RHVD . Ivd not been on here in 5 months. And only came on to see if anyone has came across it . I have 4 spots that had no rabbits 5 year back . I kept dropping rabbits from different areas to create a strong gene pool. And this summer has been an unreal breeding season. A friend was walking his terrier there yesterday and said he found a rabbit lying dead with no Mark's. I got the fear straight away. I took my fell terrier there today . Dead rabbits everywhere. Bleeding from nose . I was seeing 50 at a time . Seen 2 . And the thick brambles are stinking of de

M/C you have been out twice today . No-one can slate that . There will be men crabbing that shit themselves to walk out and have a go . plenty up here like that . But sure as it will rain in Scotland. They will be back at it in 6 weeks . Not directed at anyone in particular btw .

Everyone does something a little different with pups . There's no exact science to it . If your older and wiser , you learn by your mistakes and you make less of them . Once you've done right by a pup . Nurture it till second season. Its all down to them . Unless they are being flogged . Or owners are kidding Everyone on they are out when they ain't. Which is just as bad as flogging them .

Good post . I think your giving yourself a head start with generations of producers behind a litter, even if there's no guarantees

What about a coursing bitch x non ped ? . I owned 2 . And I'd have bet them to beat an out and out courser or a hard blood on a 200 yard slip on heavy . Best of both worlds at times

I think we're missing a point here . On any given day real heavy ground can turn to good going in 6 hours . If we are to have top animals then they need to be able to run on any conditions underfoot. That's a true dog imo . However imho the heavier the ground the tougher the shift . Look at it this way . Try cross country running on good going. And then along sand dunes . You will know . But a plough lizard will struggle on bald grass ... fact . Greatest saying ever ... horse's for courses. Merry Xmas

I would say so on smaller land , steady type and bald grass . Yes

Strong pup that . Best a luck with it . What's its lines
