What do you do? My goodness, you need to get this dog to a vet ASAP. The foot is probably broken and I'm sure it's painful. I bet if this was your foot you would go to the doctor. If finances are an issue I suggest you contact KAAWS to see if they can help. If not, maybe they can direct you to someone who can. Also, I have attached a list of organizations that help people with vet bills.
