They were nearly healed then yesterday someone accidentally stepped on his paw. He hobbled on it for a bit then seemed ok. Today he can't put ANY weight on it at all. Could it Be broken??

Not infected, immediately after the first incident we took him to the vet. He was treated an prescribed Antibiotics and anti inflamitory meds. We took him in for weekly dressing changes as suggested by the vet. We've just returned from the vet and she thins his paw is slightly inflamed due to the new trauma. She gave him an antinflamitory injection and says he should be improving by tomorrow.

You did the proper thing by taking the dog to the vet.

infected-- paw injuries are really a major thing in dogs
They can even loose a leg to them. They should all be taken seriously.

Without seeing his paw it's impossible to say. Could be broken, could be sore. I hope you little pooch gets well soon.
