Uh-Oh

Hi Friends! Well, I forgot to tell you that I got a boo-boo on Monday while mommy and I were on my morning run in the fields. I don't remember what I stepped on, but when I got home, mommy saw that there was blood on the carpet.

I guess I hurt the part of my foot called my paw pad. That's what mommy called it. Fortunately, I did not have to go to the V-E-T for this because although I like going to the V-E-T, I do not like getting my temperature taken. I usually jump off the table into mommy's arms when they try to take it.

Anyway, I had to go in my crate to rest and see if it would clot on its own. After the whole day, mommy let me out and guess what, I bleeded all over the carpet. That's what she gets for keeping me in that crate. Mommy and daddy put a big bandage on my foot, but I took it off twice because I am a tough Vizsla and don't need western medicine. Mommy did not agree with me.

One of the girls on mommy's pet board suggested using a baby sock to help keep my boo-boo covered. I still have not figured out how to get that off, but I have to admit that it feels a lot better than the big bandage because there is only a little bandage under the sock.

So here are some pictures of me sporting my new accessory:

As you can see I am a little sad about the boo-boo and new sock

But then I got a new bone, so all is good again! Maybe if I get it dirty enough, mommy will take it off. What do I look like, Michael Jackson!

  1. Poor Doug! Hope your paw pad heels up quickly! You aren't smiling in those pictures so you must not be too happy about having a sock on your foot!

  2. You're much cuter than Michael Jackson. I'll bet you could rock a moonwalk though!
