Sofia's April 07 injury

Sofia is in not such a Fine Fettle right now. She stepped on an old fashioned rectangular barn nail on April 3rd. Here are some pictures taken April 7th late in the evening. Click on any picture for larger view.


The nail, against a cloth measuring tape.




Her four feet, showing how she stands, which is also the general position she keeps her foot (right hind) when she walks -- she will draw it more forward than this actually, weight it slightly as she moves forward Major head bobbing but putting some weight on it compared to the Wednesday and Thursday.




Solar view of her injured right hind. It was late, it was dark, I was alone -- not the best prep for photos.




Solar view with me holding the nail for size comparison. The entry point was closer to the heel bulbs than where I'm holding it, about under where my first knuckle of index finger is, with about as much showing (and as much embedded) as shows in the picture.

The pictures make me shudder. Poor girl.
