    Please don't apologize for the quality of your video. It is interesting to me to learn about the beet harvest. As for worrying about Lefty, you are not crazy at all. He is your family and best friend. Lefty fills my heart with joy. ❤ I don't know him, but I love him! I'm praying for you both. I have dealt with a dog's torn toenail in the past. Seeing this happen to Lefty (and you) causes me pain and sadness. I am sure that it will heal, though. Take care, and rest with Lefty when you're finished with the harvest.

    Glad to see things are winding down . Antibiotics take about 8 to 10 days to really take effect. hang in there if there is no improvement a its good idea to see vet on Monday. Our pups are always on our minds, no need to apologize. My pup Kendall is battling some serious health issues. We understand what you are going through. So we are sending all the good karma your way. Stay safe my friend.

    I’m so sorry Lefty isn’t healing quickly, poor little guy 💕 I’d call that vet asap and tell them exactly what you said here. Lefty is probably stressed and missing you 💕 which doesn’t help. Please give us an update even if it’s crappy signal a lot of people care about you two. 🙏🏻

    It was good to turn on my iPad and see your post. I think that you have been amazing to carry on to the end of harvest. Poor Lefty. Maybe the Vet will change the antibiotics (would antibiotic cream be useful?) and anyway he will have a chance to take a good look at that foot. Is there such a thing as boots for dogs? The Vet may have some ideas about the best way to protect the nail. Anyone who has a pet will totally understand how you are feeling. Sending best wishes to you and Lefty from an extremely wet and windy Northern Ireland 😊

  • @davidmohr4606
    @davidmohr4606 Рік тому +2

    Dave, I think you'll find the vet will need to compress the toe to express wound secretions (pus, lymph fluid, etc) to help the toe heal. Due to this being an extremity, the wound fluids collect and slow the healing process. Also, if you use hydrogen peroxide, do it sparingly, as it can damage tissue on edges of wounds.

    I just went through the very same thing with my Pit Harry. Tried to deal with it myself for the first few days before the vet visit where they nipped the rest off and gave him antibiotics to take. It took a lot longer to heal than I expected but it did heal and yes it would open up and spot bleed every now and then along the way and look swollen. Just try to keep him off of it and keep it clean. More than anything don’t allow him to lick it. That more than anything will cause infection. Dogs mouths are not as clean as many people think they are. As long as it’s not oozing puss, smelling funny and he’s not constantly favoring it he should be fine. If you see my dog running around on my one video, he running around like that again and he’d ended up losing his entire nail like lefty did. I’m sure he’ll be fine. Get some rest. It’ll soothe your worries some. Hope to meet you in Quartzsite this year. I’m friends with Bob Davis, Pam, and Sandy.

    • @TheCampulanceMan

    Dave lefty must be scared stiff of going to the vet now because of his last two visits. If he has to go again ask the vet to numb his paw 🐾 before he messys with it. Just so lefty is at ease. It can't cost that much for the numbing injection. Stay positive buddy your making yours and his life so much better, we all know that 🚐🤟💯🐾🐾🐕👍

    Hi David and Lefty. Thank you for taking the time during your break and making a video for all of us. Glad you made it through the harvest. Not so tuff at the end is good. You make good money for little effort. Sorry for Jeff not making it. He at least made a few extra bucks. Poor lefty. Confidence in you though David. You'll see that he's well taken care of and comforted. Of that I'm sure. Good luck to you guys and safe travels. Do you now meet up with Jeff and begin to make your way to Quartzite? Or are you going to make an adventure and go all over?

    Hi Dave, sorry that Lefty still has a toe problem. I wish I had some good advice regarding that other than maybe treating the toe with some Hydrogen Peroxide. I've used it in the past for superficial cuts and scrapes on my past dogs and even used it on the suture line for Lilly when she lost her leg. I just hope that Lefty wasn't chewing on it while you were working, dogs do weird stuff when they get stressed out. I'm sure you will get to the bottom of it, stay safe and looking forward to the videos you mentioned. Take care, both of you...

    Sorry to hear that Lefty got hurt and is now on the get-better/get-worse rollercoaster. At least he can be seen by the vet for an update on Monday (10/23?). We’re all out here pulling for both of you!!!
    Was watching videos of a guy who bought land in Salida, CO, just South of your stompin’ grounds near Leadville. Seems like it will be too late/cold to stop there for more than a day, or so, on your way to Quartzsite.
    Take Good Care,

    I used to work industrial shut downs. We would work 12 to 16 hours a day, 7 days a week for 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the job site and the weather. I did this until I was 66 Now I'm 70 and don't know how I did it.

    Some Epsom salt soaks would help Lefty's toe. He's probably licking it a lot when you're gone at work. Toenails that have this much trauma heal slowly. I hope the vet will see him Monday.

    For noon in dew claw or toe injury land, with very dirty environments.
    Antibiotics and blue or red adhesive bandages to cover wounds.
    Protective covering over them would be IV bags tied on with ribbon, covered with bread or ziplock bags and sealed with paper tape.
    That will keep wound dry thru mud, puddles or torrential rains/snow.
    Any and all bags should be removed before leaving “lefty” alone or it will be shredded.
    At least that’s how I managed to keep toe, pad, etc injuries dry with Rottweilers, Dutch Shepherds and Malinois.

    I had basset hounds and when they injured a paw/nail out playing, they spent alot of time licking it, which kept it soft. So they would bleed some, but it kept getting better. Keep up with the antibiotics and he should heal up.

    Glad I checked out of pet drama as far as my own life, though it sucks seeing my siblings and kids go through their own pet/vet drama, big expenses with varying results, depression after pet deaths, and all the other downsides. But the Vegas line for how long it takes them to jump right back in with a new one, is about 5 weeks.
    Too bad Jeff had to bail, at least he must have made axle money and then some.

    I am behind on your videos and seeing this setback with Lucky has got me curious. I know this video is 2 weeks old and I missed when it happened so I was wondering if he has been wearing a cone while recovering from this injury? I am asking since you found the blood in the Ambo I was thinking that if he was not wearing a cone that maybe Lucky got to chewing on it and made it bleed himself. Do you happen to have cameras in the Ambo so you can check to see if he caused that himself?

    • @TheCampulanceMan
