Well Malcom had his trial and he completely severed a tenden in one of his front toes. Looks like it's gonna come off.

If it comes off, how long to it take to heal?

BTW. Snake (Super Raptor) ran 3rd last Saturday at Goulburn and me other dog Cindy (Bella Tae Dawn) won.

Snake then won at Goulburn yesterday by 5.1/2 lths.

coops

Coops how the %#**ck did he do that i was only joking when i said put a camel on the lure camel have realy big teeth congrats on super raptor i think malcolm will be out for i while i remember when vince spiteris dog lost a toe it was out for ages any way hope he makes a full recovery cheers bones

Malcom is under the knife as we speak. (6pm) Dr Linda Corney is doing it.
Will be picking him up in the morning 9am.
Dr Corney was amazed at the great condition Malcom was in and she praised my efforts in looking after him. I will now be taking SNAKE to her in the morning to get another praise. But at the same time I need her to have a look at his hock as he pulled up limping after the Goulburn run.
I am a brilliant muscle man, but there are some things that I'm not sure of, so I get a second opinion from someone else. In this case Dr Corney.
I had to scratch him from Wednesday's meeting at Nowra where he would have been a certainty if he had started.
Cindy (Bella Tae Dawn) is racing at Dapto thursday night and she is also a certainty.

PS:I would just like to add."Sh*t I'm good."

OH! forgot to tell you. My lilly has given me the flick again. This time she caught me talking to another sheila and spat the dummy. I told her that it was me mum I was talking to. She didn't believe me, saying. " Then how come she looks like she is 20 yrs old?" ( In sign talk.) I told her my old man got married again and that was his new missus and she is now my mum. She just yelled more obsenties at me and told me to p1ss off. (In sign talk)
Oh well it's back to the grovelling bit for me. I hate it when I grovell, but if I don't she'll only come looking for me and start on me again for not grovelling.

Good lord I put up with a lot these days.

ive missed the shit your dribble coops "_

buscopan is the best for cramps just don't use it close to race day otherwise you'll make chubs positive swab thread

also 5mil of rapid acid netrualiser after a race and 2 days before in there dinner

Thanks Nick. I have always used an acid nutrualiser after a race but never used it before a race. Must give that a go.
As far as the buscopan goes, I'll give that one a miss.
I have heard that giving the dog some pasta in it's meal the night before and again for breakfast will help too.
But like I said earlier, she has just these past couple of runs she has cramped at the end of her races. I haven't change any of her training routine.

Just picked up Malcom from the vets after he had his toe removed. poor little buggar can't walk on it although it's wrapped up in heaps of padding.I'll change his bandages next wednesday and I'll take the stitches out the following Wednesday. There is not much more i can do for the poor little buggar except keep him warm and comfortable.
Snake has a twisted hock but not serious. He'll have to have a few weeks off with treatment. I use caster oil to massage the affected areas twice a day. Seems to get the best results with that.

Gippy me old mate, how they hangin. Nice to see you guys are giving important advise to these new greyhound people.
They can't go wrong with you two.

For all you new greyhound people these two blokes Nickg and gippy helped me when I first started to train greyhounds a litle over 3 years ago on these forums. Since then I have become a legend.lol My skills have become world renowned for the ease in which to train greyhounds. My two mates just gave me the start I needed and away I went.

Hey boys, you did a good job with me.

They even got me a sheila on these forums too. Her name is LILLY and she is my pride and joy. We are having a bit of a tiff at the moment coz she thinks that I'm being unfaithfull. I've told her that I only have eyes for her. They get a bit blurry now and again and I've been known to grab the wrong sheila from time to time, but it's me eyes not being able to focus properly. She gets very jealous and we have a blue. I let her win coz she is loverly.
Kissy, kissy my little cream puff.
