Foofy-Foo-Foo Dog

No, Kodie can't come out to play. She broke a nail.

:)

Several of my friends have been teasing me lately about my foofy-foo-foo dog because she's an office dog. Kodie goes to work with me everyday. It's a rough life, I tell you.

Well, the other day after I finished working at night, I turned her loose to let her run a bit on the way out to the car. She ran lickety-split all over the place...including the cobble stone sidewalks. When we got to the car I noticed a little bit of blood on her foot but didn't think too much about it. Once we got home she was spending a lot of time licking her paw and that was when I noticed a decent amount of blood. I didn't worry about it since we were going to bed and she wouldn't be bouncing around on it.

In the morning she grabbed her honking duck (lucky me) and started to play. After about 3 bounces she held her paw in the air and looked at me like, "OWWWW! What the heck happened?" So I got my clippers and decided to try to do a little work on it. Which she wanted NO part of.

I decided I'd temporarily wrap it to hold it tight until the nail dies and it can be clipped off.

So yesterday I had planned to have lunch with a friend, go to the dog park, and then on to work. Plans changed since my little foofy-foo-foo dog broke a nail. Instead we just dinked around and visited friends before work.

I'm not sure how I ended up with an office dog that wears a coat and is out of commission when she breaks a nail! LOL!

I have a dog that is almost as prissy. :)
