Why would he do that? I don't know. But, he did. He was chasing after his friend on the tennis courts, turned too quick and ripped the little pad off his foot. I took this picture almost a week later. It looked worse than it might have been, but it was so sad. He limped that whole night, and licked it for two days straight. You could tell it was really sensitive.
Not sure what to do, I went to my most trusted source of advice: Facebook. After polling my friends, these were the suggestions I got on how to care for his widdle foot:
- Clip the dead skin and do one, or all of the following:
- Apply neosporin, then tape it so he doesn't lick the medicine off
-
Dry the pads out with rubbing alcohol (especially if you want to keep running with him)
- Dip it in BRAGGS brand apple cider vinegar a couple times a day
I'm happy to say that with a little TLC and some good advice, it only took Mr. Wigglebum a couple days to feel good as new.
Well, almost as good as new.
