Default His tail is now a nub!

"many_dogs" spoke these words of wisdom in
:

Our Greyhound/Dobe cross is an enthusiastic and strong tail-wagger. I
noticed he was licking his tail yesterday and realized that all the dogs
were overdue for their Frontline. Figured he'd picked up some fleas and
it itched. I applied Frontline.

Then last night while we were all sleeping, he tried to chew off his
tail. Got halfway there, too. Blech. Took him to the vet. He'd broken
it about 2 inches from the end, it hurt, thus the chewing. She
amputated, and he's now got a six-inch nub and recovering from the
operation with a bright orange bandage on it.

I'm so sorry, speedy healing wishes on the way
