We have been training and working out pretty much every morning for the past two weeks now and I have been thinking it was a good thing. However, we had to cut our workout short this morning because someone was coming to the house to do some work this morning.
Apparently running for 45min. is no longer enough. Neka is all over the place and going mach 10. its like she is 6 months old again. I gotta wonder is having a fit GSP always a good thing? |

Thanks for the update. I am sure I am not the only one who was curious. My dad and I were just talking about that tare the other day and feeling pretty lucky that hasn't happened to one of our dogs (let alone twice to the same dog). |

Just an update, here is a picture of my dog 3 weeks later after he de-gloved the skin off his leg. He appears to be healing just fine. There is the spot where the entry would happen, and the Vet could not save the skin—it was shredded. He is smiling now and running hard and just as anxious as me for the opener.

Hey JPC,
If you will look at the first picture, you will see on his hind leg a scar—this was a 3 inch tear. He does this all the time. The Vet was looking at his chart and was kind of laughing at me. Let me do a run down in the last three years: We were quail hunting and I shot a bird over a fence. Cooper tries to clear the fence and doesn’t make it and catches his peter on a barb; it cut about ˝ inch of the pink fleshy stuff off the end of it—I heard the yip. Same year we were hunting forest grouse and he impaled a sharp stick in his chest. This stick broke off and was around 2 ˝ inches in. I had to pull it out and run to the vet, again, I heard the familiar yip. Then his tore a 3 inch tear out of his hind rump, which required stiches and a Vet visit—heard the yip there too. So, on Saturday when I heard the accustomed yip I knew what had happened, but this one gave me fairly panicked feeling. I was two miles in and didn’t have any wrap or Karl’s dog carrier. I tried to carry him for a while and figured it would kill me first. So I leashed him and made him walk out with me. I kept the wound moist every 10 minutes or so. I still had a hard time keeping him from running. The drive in some dogs is amazing. The Vet told me he had had a similar case where the dog de-gloved like this too, but it went all the way to the toe nails. I was glad that wasn’t me.

Actually I bike with him, vet, a couple days of each week. It just cost me a dinner or two. Well...I buy him dinner everytime we go--something wrong here. |

Todd...your vet must love you. Has he/she ever taken you out on the yacht they own because of you?? I hope the pup heals well. |

Ughhh....That looks like more of an incised wound like a wire did it or something. Get well soon, pup! |

I thought I would throw this in. Cooper asked me to take the “cone of shame” off his head before I took this shot. He is doing better but worried about scars. I told him “chicks dig scars.” Just kidding, we are hoping all the hide remains intact. My wife told me we visit the vet after hours more than the pediatrician.
