Dog with a broken toe

Our dog broke his toe about a week and a half ago. We brought him to the vet and had a cast put on- he chewed through it. We had him re-cast and put a conehead on him- he managed to circumvent the conehead and chew throught the cast again. We're now on cast number 3 and really can't afford this anymore. The vet says that we can take the cast off and the toe will eventually heal- but very slowly (months instead of weeks). Has anyone else had experience with something like this? Advice is appreciated!

My dog broke her toe too like 8months ago! You are not alone. It was definately hard b/c my dog would bite the cast and the e-collar. We went thru 2 collars. We bought some bitter apple and sprayed that on the cast...it helped a little. Good luck! HOpe your doggie feels better and has a full recovery. Our dog was only 7months old so the vet told us not to worry that she will fully recover which she did.
