4greyhounds Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) My little baby girl (greyhound) that was attacked, is supose to get her stitches out today. She was attacked by another dog it was a no-fault of anyone just happened very fast. But she had a 8-in gash on one side and 2-other places on the other side. She spent 5-days in the hospital, I have beeen worried sick, But not her I have had to almost tye her to the crate. But she could use some small prayeers today. We are worried one side looks like it MAY be infected. I tell you my baby girl don't leave my sight for one second, even on the leash, she is my heart dog I love her so much. Thanks for any thoughts and prayers today. Edited February 25, 2008 by 4greyhounds Quote Darlene Mom to: Aladdin, Sophie ,Pongo, Jasmine, Relic Forever in our Hearts Champ at the Rainbow Bridge.

Prayers for an uneventful stitch removal. Sorry that was a joke! I would never actually tye her anywhere!!!!!!! NEVER.... But to try to keep her from popping those stitches and keep her away from the other dogs we had to crate her and she wants out of there so bad.......she jumps and etc. She has the energy but to look at her you would be amazed at houw she has that energy. We also only put her in there when we go out but have snook around and used the web cam and you can see her jumping.....

RobinM Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I understand completely. My Beau was attacked by my Teddy over a KONG and Teddy just missed his jugular. Beau needed surgery and of course stitches. It was a MESS. Within a day or 3 Beau was pretty much Beau, jumping and doing and being a bozo dog. If it were humans, it would take a good 3 months to even feel halfway normal. Dogs are extremely resislient. That's why when a dog is "off", they much really feel like ka ka. BTW-- why didn't they use stitches that disolved?

4greyhounds Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Good Questions I think because the wounds were too deep and she had to have tubes put in. Bless her heart and her mommy is a old lady falling a part but we get around great. She is just my BABY and if ANYTHING happens to her, it will kill me, I have other but she is my baby.

cello Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) Prayers for Jamine doing well at the vet today. You have had a really rough time of it lately Darlene. First Bo with his paws, then Sophia with the bladder issue, and now Jasmine. Hope that the rest of the year is a calm one for you. Carol Ann Edited to correct spelling!

Guest greybookends Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I just how you feel. My Bill also has stitches from an attack. It to is a no ones at fault attack. Sometimes they just happen out of the blue.That doesn't mean it hurts any less. I hope your sweet girl heals up quickly and is back to narmal in no time flat. I will say a prayer for her healing.

CaliforniaGreys Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I know you were hoping they would come out today, but maybe it's not bad news. As long as she is comfortable, that's what counts. You sure have been through a lot lately. I remember you posting about Sophie, and we both know that's a problem!! I hope Jasmine stays comfortable, I'll keep her in my prayers for sure.It's always something isin't it..
