Aw bless, our late grey Reggie suffered from corns, luckily our vet used to work at the track and he just pops them out, I know not all vets do this, but it can be done, but also we used to use little booties for him when not walking on grass, they are so painful for them, it's horrible. Hope Brae is OK xxxx

Hi Tash, so sorry to hear Brae has a corn. My Brother's Greyhound has a corn too and he does the same as Liz and puts a boot on Mannie when he goes for a walk. Ruth is an expert on corns :)) sure she would be happy to have a chat with you. Kate Xxx

My dog has had a series of corns since Christmas. A bootie definitely helped her whilst out walking. On Ruth's recommendation, I have put a tiny piece of gaffa tape on the pad effected most recently (she's had 2 corns removed from same pad in one month) and that does seem to be helping to. I think the idea behind it, is that blocking the oxygen supply kills the corn. Good luck with it. These corns are really rotten for our hounds.

Walked Suarez this morning. He really enjoyed getting out of his kennel and behaved impeccably. A brilliant hound xx

What a great character he is. He loved his walk and just wanted to explore every bit of the lane. He came back with quite a lot of foliage attached to his head!! I went to see him again before leaving the kennels and he just bounced with the joy of having a visitor. I'm sure he will give some lucky person a lot of laughs and fun times xx

Brae
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Any advice appreciated... Brae started limping on her (hock injured) leg last night so initially we thought she'd strained the joint however, having a close look at her pads, it appears that she may have a corn. Not dealt with one on a paw before and vet (via phone) has suggested that we use a fine emery board to file the area prior to our appointment on Monday. Is there anything else we should be doing to help Brae's discomfort? Many thanks, Tash

I made friends yesterday with Wolfy. He's a little bit nervous at least until he gets to know you but i'm confident that given time and his own little bit of space he will be a lovely happy loving pet for some lucky family. It will just take a little bit of time and patience but what better reward than to gain the trust and love of a shy nervous dog and he's so lovely too xx

Ah Wolfy, you get our BIG family cuddle today beautiful and we've got our fingers & paws crossed that you're soon snuggled up on the cosiest sofa. Our little poppet suffered a nasty hock injury during her racing life, but this hasn't slowed her down, if anything it's made her more determined not to miss out on long walks, racing around the garden with big sis and standing on her back legs in excitement when her lead is shaken. Big hugs gorgeous xxxx

I love a dog with character, I have had a few in the past and now have one with Max, he is a real food monster, his favourite is pizza! He can reach the most inaccessible places!

Wolfy is a very special boy. He sadly fractured his back right tibia in three places, but thanks to the care and patience of his trainer he has made a great recovery and is looking for a special forever home where he can start to enjoy the next chapter of his life. Xxx

Rosie is right...the "real" Fletcher is starting to appear! It all started after I signed his paperwork and bought him a new collar!! He knows he has his forever home and has put his little paws firmly under the table and on it! :))) Xxx
