Vegas, the greyhound, came in for a check up recently and his owner mentioned he had been limping on and off for a little while. Our vet Vicki had a good feel of Vegas’s joints and checked all his paws when she came to a surprise. One of Vegas’s toes had crossed underneath his other toes and in between his pads, making it look broken!
We were unsure how it happened and decided to take X-Rays to see how bad it was (see photos). Luckily after taking the X-Rays it was clear to our vet Iona that it was not broken and just dislocated. She was able to pop it back into place.
Our nurses Becky and Rachael created a great bandage with a splint inside to help support Vegas’s toe being put back in place.
We saw Vegas the week after, took off his bandage, and was pleased to see all 4 toes in place where they should be! Silly Vegas, how could you not fall in love with his goofy smile though and those big eyes 😍
