Jinks has a poor paw by quietpurplehaze

Jinks has a poor paw

I feel the vet was generous when she described him as a 'Cairn with attitude' as she fetched a nurse to hold him in a 'headlock' (think I have that correct) while she treated his paw. Not desperate, but very sore I guess. (He's growling at me when I put on the cream each day!)

He did manage, as you see, to get up on the sofa to pass a comfortable night but says he's feeling a bit black and white.
Poor little chap, and we shouldnt laugh, but he does look a picture in his collar! He is far from amused evidently! Great shot and good in b/w

LOL! Luckily we didn't need to 'activate' the collar we got when Monty had his latest foot 'do' because the painkillers were enough to stop the licking - I'm just thinking I could employ it as an examination aid though!

:( poor Jinks, the B/W suits his mood I'm thinking, lovely shot.

Thanks everyone for stopping by & commenting. Poor Jinks, very subdued and I've remembered what my right hip is for - 'carry-walks'.
As an added annoyance his paw bled on the carpet this p.m.....

@quietpurplehaze Oh Hazel - carry walks! - does Jinx know he is so spoiled?
July 24th, 2012  
@tishpics Well the carry walks are a necessity rather than an outing as Jinks is a NIMBY!!!! So I carry him down the road to the nearest green where he descends and performs and then I carry him home. Things we do............................

Oh, poor Jinks. They hate those collars - Olivia had to wear one for a month and soon realised she could get attention by barging into the back of our legs with it. Hope he gets better soon.

@creativeamateur Gosh that's a long time, a month, to have to put up with one of those collars. Jinks seems to have another problem with his paw bleeding so back to the vet this p.m.
