Hi All

Just seeing if anyone has experienced this.. I have a bitch at home who has never been quite right. We tried for a long time to get her right and she finally had a start led for 3/4 of the race slowed up and came 3rd..was limping badly after the race so she went off to the vet...Vet mentioned that there was a solid lump in one of her toes (middle toe front left)...vet proceeded to remove lump and in doing so removed the tip of the nail bed also..waited about 6 weeks after the operation before she trialled again and was still limping..few weeks later she came on season..she is very well bred and we decided to go ahead and have a litter with her..Pups are now 4 months old and doing well..

What bothers me is that she still has an issue with this foot..I would like to take her out for a few handslips etc but obviously this foot concerns me..she can walk around fine on it but if you take her to the park and she opens up after a while she will still weight bear but her foot wrist will tremble..

I dont have any muscle people etc in the area (SA) and the next thing i will do is go back to the vet, but i thought i would just put it out there.

Appreciate any input
