glad you was`nt decapitated by the lampshade,perhaps niles needs a padded one

I know what you are saying mel, its quite possible,why only last saturday i picked up six beer bottles,near the car park at shearbarn, the damage it causes, where they can`t be bothered to put them in the bin
.That said peps doing ok the vet decided not to strap the wound,given peps track record with sutures, just a plaster type dressing,and to date, pep has not had a nibble at it

I have no idea ,i can only assume pep chased something and ran into a tree stump,or branch, or bramble,it was a clean gash, luckilyOuch! That sounds like a horrible wound! Do you know what he got into? -
Hi all ,Could you good folks on greytalk spare pepper some good thoughts and prayers please, I took pepper for his normal walk this morning, pep was his normal self enjoying his walk, upon the east hill,as we often do,when he disappeared, only for a couple of minuets, he seemed ok when he came back,but when i looked at his front right leg i could see a nasty gash on the outside just above the stopper pad, the wound was about three inches long ,by three quater,so another trip to the vets,was required, the vet said its a nasty wound ,and some of the skin/flesh is missing
so pep was given a pre med straight away ,and is now recovering from the anaesthetic,after having eight sutures,and we go back in three das for a dressing change. there`s never a dull moment with this boy.

Hugs and prayers for jack and yourselves

Pepper had the exact same toe amputated you are talking about 3rd front left, some 9 months ago,it took about 3 months for pep to get back to "normal" .he is a very active dog and is back to his old self doing just fine minus a toe, pep lost his toe due to a reacurring interdigital cyst,and has made a full recovery,so it seems they can cope perfectly well , but there are probably some that find it difficult, hope this is of some help.

I couldn't get Dear to eat regular food, so I'd mix canned catfood in his kibble & he'd eat that. He'll be doing good in no time.Tell Buster to always make sure the door is unlocked, ya never know when aunt Hil is going to sneak up & get both of them...and I might take that daughter chick of yours so someone can help take care of all my pups. hehehe

Hi all peppers showing signs of improvement today,although he is still a bit stiff on his backend,he is asking for his food,which he is eating readily,and in general things are looking ok,he is being spoilt rotten,and buster is back to teasing pep with his food
Thank you all again for your kind thoughts and support 
-
Thanks hil now its all about healing,and resting buster is looking after his big bro,peps been off his food which is understandable, we put their food down in the kitchen, and i think buster say to pep if you dont eat it i will and it seems to work pep goes to the kitchen and eats his foodWell now that I'm getting good news about Pepper, I wanted to let you know I've booked Pipi-Francine's waver runner for a trip to England this weekend with my big purse. Keep your doors locked. I'm kidding...
This is very good news....
-
I'm glad Pepper's feeling better today. And everyone is right, don't beat yourself up, these things can happen to anyone.
Is Buster playing nursemaid?
Yes you are right buster is trying to play nursemaid much to peppers annoyance.and where wounds are weeping on the covers ,pep gets off buster gets on to inspect,and pepper wont get back on because his bed is "dirty" -
Thanks ,mel. i will keep updating,at the moment we are keeping a watchful eye on pep, he is bright ,but resting i shall be bathing the wounds shortly. the car did`nt stop,people say pep was going hell for leather .i am still angry with me, idiot stupid irresponsible ,fool.Hi Peter, So sorry to hear about Pepper's accident. Glad to hear that he is doing okay, sending best wishes to him and you all from me and Sadi and also from Ben and his Puppers....Get well soon Pep.btw. Don't beat yourself up Peter, accidents happen and if there is anything I can do you know where I am.

sorry for you and penny

tHANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR KIND THOUGHTS. we went to the vets 3.pm peppers still very sore the vet is satisfied that all the damage is superficial,cuts and grazes on legs back,and a very nasty one on peps tail,the vet was concerned that it might be broken, but on closer inspection he thinks notso fingers crossed
pep got away fairly lightly,pep has taken a little food and water todayand seems bright .he is on metacam and noroclav for the next ten days and
plenty of bed rest. the wound on the tail concerns us most,the vet says he could not possibly stitch but to bathe the wounds
thanks again for all of your prayers and kind thoughts.

Could ask the kind folk on greytalk for some kind thoughts and healing prayers please,as my boy pepper as been in an accident with a car.i am hating myself at the present time for walking pep for letting pep off leash,and for puttin my boy through so much pain.we went for our evening walk upon the east hill as we allways do it started to rain so we headed back ,there was a big clap of thunder,pep got spooked and bolted,he was not stopping for anything
,as i was running down the steps i was fearing the worst,by the time i got to the maine road pepper was sitting at a bench outside the a pub with a crowd of people around him,we rushed pep to the vets, the vets examined him and we think at the moment its just lots of bruising cuts and abrasions,the vet gave painkillers anti biotic antinflamatory,we take pep back tomorrow. at the moment he is resting,and i am beside myself, and feeling dreadful and hating and kicking myself. -
he is one handsome dog, looks like a lot of grey to me!
-
they were my partners chocolates,you see when someone is a bit poorly you give choccies or something to cheer them up,i suppose being as pepper did not recieve any goodies he thought he would help himselfThat's good to hear Peter....I would have thought you would have known better by now not to let the burglars near your chocolates
btw. Gwen and the pack send all the best.

Hi GTers,firstly thank you all for your kind thoughts,and good wishes,we took pepper to the vets this evening for a checkup, the vet is well pleased with the healing process,he says the wound is healing nicely,probably 3 to 4 weeks before its completely healed,pep finishes the last of the antibiotics tomorrow.peps pretty much back to his old self, half a bag of chocolates mysteriously disappeared overnight
it could have been burgulars i suppose 
glad you was`nt decapitated by the lampshade,perhaps niles needs a padded one 
.That said peps doing ok the vet decided not to strap the wound,given peps track record with sutures, just a plaster type dressing,and to date, pep has not had a nibble at it
