Ugh, dog bites suck
Well, I know first hand what it's like to be bitten by a dog. I got mauled by a rottweiler a year ago at a party. Have nice scars on my thigh to prove it.
My poor cocker spaniel cody, got into a fight with my moms boyfriends dog friday night. I came over, last night and realized he was whining, shaking and acting incredible weird. That's when I noticed the giant wound under his belly. My mom, apparently hadn't even CHECKED the dog for injury after the fight. She said she was "to busy". He had bled, licked at the wound all night and been in pain.
10 stitches, a drainage tube, cone on his head & $350 later this is the end result. I AM SO PISSED OFF! My moms boyfriend got mad at us for taking him to the vet, he doesn't believe in doing that. He says if the dog was that injured, they'd be shot like old times. Here's a nice little picture.
He has to have this gell injected into his wound 3x a day, pain meds 2x a day, this powder 1x a day and a warm compress on the swollen pocket of fluid 3x a day until it drains.
In the pic, on the left you'll see a bulge next to the stitches, thats the pocket of fluid thats the size of a small orange. The stitches go all the way under his belly as well.
