If he won't even let you touch it then it is obviously hurting him, he is just a baby, please don't wait til tomorrow after school, school isn't finished til after 3. Have your mom take him in for you or take some time off and go, I had a pup for 3 wks and he passed away, you can't just let these kinds of things go on with these little babies. You said you know it is bothering him!

Does not look healthy, and definitely looks painful. Take him to the vet now!!

I have known people who use those rings to dock tails and they are painful to a pup, esp if older. They are called castration rings. Is the ring still on his tail? If it is you can try to soften the tail and remove it.

Heres a picture of what they look like.

From an attempted tail docking was my first thought...hope the vet has an answer. Poor baby...
