Yikes, We Had A Scuffle


Guest Carla

Recommended Posts

Many thanks to all for the good wishes!

 

Barney is doing fine and the wounds look good. He managed to get a staple out of his ear - but I do not think it warrants a trip to the vet.

 

He is on Cephalexin 500 mg twice a day for 10 days and Deramaxx 50 mg once a day til tomorrow.

 

We go back on the 18th to get the staples out.

Oh, poor Barney! I hope he heals up soon. Sending lots of good thoughts your way and an extra :bighug for you... these things can be pretty frightening!

Wow, Barney's wounds have healed beautifully! You're right, you vet does a great job. I'm glad he's okay. Of course, it doesn't take away that fear. Sometimes an altercation can seem so random. When we had Nick and Buster, they got along great all the time, but once tore into each other because they were both eyeing an empty yogurt container! And they never had another fight after that. I hope it's smooth sailing at your house from now on!

Wonderful vet, so glad to see he is doing so well. Baby Gus got his stitches out the same day - they must be on the same healing plan - I have to post updated pix of him later but I think your guy definitely got it worse than our guy - amazing how quickly they heal. Hoping that things go better at your house, we are still kinda walking on egg shells. Sending hugs and scritches.
