Stop Pad

Zio hurt his right stop pad at some point Sunday or Monday. I noticed it Monday evening after I caught him licking his paw a couple of times. He hadn't been limping or anything, but it does look sore. I've continued to walk him in the mornings and evenings, but no activities that require running or jumping for a while. It was starting to look better last night, so I'm skipping the morning walk and letting him rest it more. Connie and Susan Owen had a spray they swear by to help speed up the healing, so we'll give that a try too. He's not going to like having to skip practice on Sunday!
