We think Kingsley's big sister Gretel tried to run for her ball, and pushed off of Kingsley's foot. He didn't yelp or cry, he just lifted his leg and trotted after her.
He was immediately put on crate rest from Sunday evening - Monday, when the vet added NSAIDs and Tramadol to his care plan, and said to continue his crate rest until Thursday.
Wednesday night I brought Kingsley back in because I wasn't seeing the improvement I thought he should be making on those medications. They kept my sweet boy over night in order to sedate him, and x-ray his paw thoroughly.
They found that he broke his third toe on his back right leg. He's in the cone of shame and a CAST for FOUR weeks!
