Guess who...

...has a boo boo? Well, technically it's not really a boo boo but Mommy insisted on bandaging up my front paw. For the past few days, Mommy has noticed that my front paw is sometimes very wet. I only lick it when no one is looking. I'm pretty good about not licking wounds and stuff like that. (I didn't even need a cone after my big boy surgery when I was a wee little pup). Mommy told me to stop but I just couldn't. Then last night Mommy saw a little bit of blood on the hairs between my paw pads. (Hee hee). So on went the medicine and the bandage to prevent me from licking. I've been good and haven't tried taking off the bandage. Mommy thinks it's an allergy because the same thing happened last summer. Daddy thinks I stepped on a bee. It's my secret and I'll never tell.

Sierra's Scoop

First of all I want to start out by saying I'm ok so don't be too sad during my story about what happened today. So the girl next door was looking through the fence huffing and puffing at Brother Bear and me, so I pounced the fence right where her face was to let her know how much I don't like it when she does that. During the commotion I did feel a little pain in my right front paw but I was too worked up by our fence line scuffle to pay it any attention. Then it really started to sting and then it started throbbing. I broke two of my nails, one in half and the other almost down to the skin. Daddy and Mommy were eating dinner so they didn't see my injury until after I left a blood trail all over the patio then into the house across the carpet and up onto the leather couch. Mommy went into panic mode when she saw the blood everywhere she even cried a little with me when Daddy was pouring hydrogen peroxide on my paw. The bleeding stopped in less than 10 minutes. The bandage is big and clumsy so I can hardly walk while wearing it but I will let this one heal along time before I do any thing like this again.

Sierra's Mommy here. Boy, when it rains it pours. It's hard to believe that clawing a fence can break a pup's nails.:( Sierra hates when we clean her wound but other than that she's great. She's playful, cuddly, still loves treat and dinner time. I actually think she enjoys not going for walks. Still, it breaks my heart that my Baby Girl has not one but two owies.:(
