Polly to the doc again!

Poor old Polly!

After her course of pills, she is still limping and it hasn't seemed to improve. So another trip to the vet today.

Good news.... they didn't weigh her again!! Bad news is she may have fractured a bone in her foot... like our toe bone or a bad sprain. But, of course for her to have an x-ray she needs to have a little sleep to keep her nice and still. Bit like trying to x-ray the little fella really !!

If there is a fracture, she will have to have a splint on and ..... yippee... become an inside dog for a few weeks.

Have the ring the vet back tomorrow to see which they recommend. Sleep and X-Ray to double check or just inforced rest and anti-inflamitory drugs. Will wait to see what they say.

Good thing is she doesn't seem to be having discomfort.... just favoring that foot by not putting full wight on it.
