My poor little puppy is having his tail amputated today. He started of with a slight graze on the end, that has got worse and worse - it finally started looking much better earlier this week. Last night it was clear he was in pain with it, couldn't bare it being touched and and looked much worse. Today vets said it's gone on too long, appears to be infected now and obviously isn't going to to be possible to heal. They have kept him in to amputate a large section of the tail (they will leave it only slightly longer than a docked tail).
I'm really worried about him and pretty devestated it has reached this point. He is not even 11months old yet, poor boy.
