That's right. Our 2 dogs got into a fight yesterday with a big dog. Our dogs were outside in the back yard (we have Invisible Fence) and Keith was just about to leave for work when he heard them bark. He looked out the window and saw a big dog and as he made his way to the back door to shoo it away they started fighting. By the time Keith got out there the big dog had Daisy pinned down by the neck! Luckily Keith was able to get the dog off of Daisy and into the front yard without getting bit himself. The dogs owner was running down the street looking for the dog (it got out the front door when the carpets were getting cleaned) so Keith handed it over and went to check out our dogs. They were both bloody so he packed them up and took them to the vet. Oh, all of this was in his nice suit, too! Jack checked out just fine but Daisy needed 1 of her wounds closed surgically since it was deep and wide. She had a few other small wounds that should heal up on their own. She did fine during the surgery and came home last night. They placed a drain which will come out Friday and her staples will come out in a week. Needless to say the dogs are a little timid to go outside. They hurry out and do their thing and hurry back in. If you're not there to let them in right away they bark or whine. Poor little guys!!! I guess they will need time to feel safe outside again. We are very thankful that Keith was home when this happend...who knows what would've happened if it was me home or worse yet no one home! I took a few pics of Daisy and her battle wounds. She is already feeling better:)
I know what you're thinking...a shirt on a dog? It's supposed to stop her from licking the wound. As soon as this comes off she is licking and biting it like crazy! Might have to get a cone!
Daisy with her hero!!!
Very excited to be in their crates:)
