those are so cute ! But i have been told to not put anything on his paw. He is cone free while I'm home , and week end is coming so I will be able to check up on him. Him being older helps a lot too , he doesn't run around everywhere, I do have to stop him when he and Nelly are playing but one more week and we will be ok !

Frenchy, for my own edumecation, is that to keep the air circulating on it (discouraging warm moist conditions which can be a breeding ground for infection) or to keep all pressure off the nail and toe (encouraging good cirulation and tissue repair) ?

It's for both M3X. They told me as soon as it stopped bleeding , to stop the bandages (ideally 24 hours after his injurie) to let it dry (he can't lick it either) it will heal faster. And if he has something that keeps rubbing on it , it would start bleeding again. No danger for infection as he is on antibiotics.
