Both puppies have been in the wars lately.

Vader has recovered from his operation and his toe nail is healing and growing nicely. However they have both been undone by chasing foxy around the grounds. The surface is very rough in places and it looks like their excitement got the better of them with quite badly cut pads. Vader has managed to cut both his front pads with the left being the worst while Chewie managed to cut both her back paws with her right being worst.

They have been wearing dressings and boots when out (only one foot each) but the boots are not the best in the world at either staying on or keeping their paws dry.

We have now invested in some better boots so hopefully they will arrive within the next few days and also ordered some Tuffoot so hopefully with that will help prevent future cuts to the pads. The puppies have always had pretty soft pads despite walking on paving for at least an hour a day so lets hope this makes a difference.
