Guest Greyt_dog_lover Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Has anyone suggested electric therapy? We had a hound that had a terrible tear on his chest and the group used electric stimulus daily to help with healing. It worked like a charm. Just throwing that out there. Hopefully they can get any infection under control quickly. Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenbo Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I hope he's doing better. Weirdly enough, Myka has a similar wound right near that spot Quote Camp Broodie with tuxedo Summer 12 and tuxedo Dio 6 Missing KC Kitty 2000-2016, Myka and part of my heart 2006-2020, and Saint YellBoy 2014-2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BootsyCollins Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Dang, how frustrating. I hope it's a minor setback and healing continues Quote Christie and Bootsy (Turt McGurt and Gil too) Loving and missing Argos & Likky, forever and ever. ~Old age means realizing you will never own all the dogs you wanted to. ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LindsaySF Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 The wound is looking great. Another week or two and I think it will be closed completely! ~Lindsay~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LindsaySF Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I figured I'd give another update, since it's been a while. Teagan spiked another fever on July 22. The wound was oozing a little serum, no puss, but it was our last day of antibiotics and I didn't want to take any chances, so off to the vet again. Of course that was the hottest day of the year too, so his temp was 104.5 when we checked in. They cooled him down, flushed the wound, and we got 2 more weeks of meds. His eyes were a little bloodshot for the next day or so, but other than that he bounced back pretty quickly. My poor Teegs! The good news is I took this photo last week, and the wound is almost closed up now. It's a tiny bit smaller today, but Teegs wouldn't cooperate for another photo. Slowly but surely. ~Lindsay~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
