The vet told me Fozzie's tail would hang limp for a day or so, then begin raising, then wagging. He was wagging his tail this morning. I'm happy he is healing. Glad it's not broken and needing further attention.
This groomer, who is excellent, btw, did shave part of his tail, which I asked her to do. He won't let me near his tail, which has hair over 6 or 7 inches long.
She shaved it near his rump and cut the rest of it down. I suspect he may have struggled while she was doing this.
The vet said next time I take him for grooming to come get a pill to sedate him! I will do that!
