    I agree with Lois, he may have had a long-standing issue therefore had nerve damage in his foot. :0)

    Today I had to make a courtesy call to a family doctor with the result of an x-ray done on his patient,after the patient came to my Unit for treatment...
    "So...the patient has fractured his talus" I said
    "What part of the hip is that?" asked the doctor

    Had a little kid tell me that his dog had to be "seduced" by the vet for a surgical procedure (he obviously meant sedated).
