Had Rex and Ted to go to Bruce Danns this Saturday for schooling/Breaking in. Go out to the run yesterday at Lunch and there is Rex with a good gash on the front leg just above the elbow. Not a nice looking gash deep and about 8 cm across. Took to the vet immediately for stitches.Vet thinks its a bite and i expect Ben has done it through the fence.Vet knocks him out to do it and clean it up and tells me that a part of the muscle has been torn and he has had to stitch that as well as cut the leg horizontally so he could pul it together. Now its wait and see to see how it heals. Absolutely gutted for the owners and the dog but hoping things will work out.
He seems well in himself today but the cut looks nasty and he will definitely be confined to the lead for the next 14 days!
Update on Tom. His toe is slowly healing but it is hard when the dog is like a loaded spring! The cut is gradually healing so lets hope!!
Going to Bruce Danns today with Ben and Ted now!
