Okay, so I was all excited about the bandage lasting so long and then it ended up being ME that took it off early! It had gotten wet and was really dirty, so I took it off last night seeing as it was raining today. The nail still gives me the willies, but it doesn’t seem to be hurting her. We haven’t had any bleeding, so that’s good. I’m just warning you that I put a picture of the nail at the bottom of this post.
Since we have a therapy visit on the 29th, I picked up Riley a Halloween T-shirt from Target for $4.99. It was cheap enough, and I figured what the heck, it might make some people smile. I tried it on her tonight:
It gives me free access to her collar, so that’s good.
And now, the nail!
It looks like it’s trying to give birth or something…!

Awww, the shirt looks great.Good idea to take off the bandage. Wet and dirty would not be good for that nail. The nail looks good to us, nice shade of pink. Good luck with the rest of the healing.Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
I think The Op Pack is right…take off the bandage and let the nail breathe! How pink that nail is, oh my! I can understand why you'd be bothered by the nail b/c you were the one who went through all of those vet appts, etc!

The Nail is such a pretty color. Does she want to lick it? Sounds like a good idea getting the bandage off so it can get some air. Love the T-shirt. How does Riley feel about wearing it?

Mom and I chukhkled at your khomment about the nail's appearance!Hugz&Khysses,Khyra
Woof! Woof! LOVE your shirt. I guess mom forgot to cover your bandage with plastic. The color seems to be good … ask your vet if you need to disinfect. I hope Riley will not lick it … if not it will be a problem. Sending you Golden Healing Thoughts. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
