On checking the photo again - roll up that lip ..and just see if there's any damage on the inside ..bruising/hole , etc . Just in case ;) and take photo ..AND show dog walker - and ask what he did do , if it isn't a tooth mark? Did he stick his head thru a wire fence/run into sticks....???

I LIKE that bolded bit ...... and hopefully whatever/whoever left their mark has not also affected his little spotty psyche .

ermmmm looks very much like a bite!! They don't look like grazes- the outlines look way too deep/neat . (I'd be very wary of a dog walker who let my dog get "grazes" like that - what the hell did he hit?) Thorough saline wash .. then betadine a ouple times a day ... if it is a bite ..there may well be some swelling /bruising . Just keep an eye on it ...and get to a vet if the area feels hotter /is swollen ..appears to dampen his enjoyment of the finer things in life. *disclaimer* NOT veterinary advice ...

Your poor Mum - most of us know that pain ... the clearing away of all those bits & pieces ..

and wait, there's more ;)

???????? So sorry, huski. Rest now, Micha.

Oh huski ???? what awful news. Sending hugs and strength. ????

Unless it's pouring/freezing - I just wear normal clothes , but with either a short sleeved , or long sleeved wool top , and dry off when we get home :) If it's cold - I use a brolly :)

lhok - he would not be able to think that hard ! he is a doofus ;)

Thank you , Stan & Maddie ! :)

fair enough ... :)

ermmm- when he looks a bit less like one of these ! SO many prickles/seeds ...... if he gets wet, we're in for a surprise ;)

Do we have pics of the offending yummy bit of silicone ? maybe tell the manufacturer that they are TOUGH as a dogs' guts ;)

the footy is an opshop baby's fluffy toy - and belongs to young Smoke ;) it rattles - and he loves it! ...

So glad it is now gone !! I also hope the vet now realises they can NEVER totally rule out a blockage with a dog who is unwell. ;) Wolf must be feeling so much more comfortable :D

he always has to carry something ..I find toys in the oddest places ;)

Don tends to go wandering /rabbit chasing /whatever .... and often, I can tell where he's been by carefully observing the environment .....This was spotted this morning, about 300 mtrs from our house..... *sigh*

..I do love playing on the little iphone :) Tonight I caught a mouse ;)

:) so much enjoyment and energy :D

LOL he looks great! :)

Ahh, I thought they misspelt Boarder as in Boarding Kennel :) I hadn't seen the other thread so was a little confused. and I thought it was border (collie)

What a shame you've paid AS you said though - your dogs are home .

Who was it that had 2 wirehaired GSP's on here? Illness ended their lives , I think - but I fell in love with them thru photos/posts ...
