In my absence (or perhaps before I even left) Jake managed to split a nail and crack a tooth. The nail got partially pulled and we are watching it and doing some meds and the tooth has to be pulled (the root is exposed). Poor guy! He’ll have to be put under anesthesia for the tooth and that always makes me cry nervous. I do sort of feel like this was the defining moment that he was meant to be mine though.
For now, here are some recent pics. Pretty sure they are hoping for the dog sitter to come back in all these photos!
I do hope LL Cool Jake gets better very quickly. That sounds terribly painful.
Aw… poor Jake. I hope that the nail gets better and his tooth gets fixed up soon. Sending get well smooches in the mean time… with a few extras for Melvin (you have to be fair about these things!)
Yikes, poor guy, that tooth sounds painful! Cricket recently had a pulled/ripped nail, the darn thing finally fell off! Hope he’s feeling better soon!
Ouch, poor Jake! Hope he feels better soon. Loving the one sock, though 😉
I love how mopey he is over the dog walker, way to guilt trip Mom 😛 I feel for you because mouth & paws are not fun places to treat on pups. Hope LL Cool Jake is feeling better soon!
Would they fix they nail while he is under so they wouldn’t have to put him under again?
Stop on by for a visit

Poooooor Jake!! We’ve dealt with both of those things, but on different dogs (Molly Tamale = broken nail, Cooper = tooth). I get so nervous too every time one of my fur-babies had to go under anesthesia. I’m glad the Jake-ster is OK!!
