Problem Notes

• Tail Fracture: On July 2 another dog bit Schatzi's tail and clamped on. Rimadyl was given for pain control.
  On July 15 her tail looked kinked near an inflamed tooth puncture hole was found, and she started to hold it flat out rather than her usual "Shiba Inu curl"
  Radiographs showed the 7th coccygeal vertebrae was broken, about 2/3 distal
