Barbed Wire

Here's a pic of my dog Cap.  He's sleeping off the effects of sedation from the vet.  It seems that yesterday, while exercising along side my Kawasaki Mule, he decided to take a short cut through a barbed wire fence.  He hit that thing full stride right in the mouth.  He cut his tongue and broke some middle teeth.  Blood everywhere! The tongue heals amazingly fast, but the two teeth were just chips and had to be removed before they became infected. Actually, he'll be fine and won't miss the teeth at all- they weren't his canines nor molars.  I hope the little knot head learned something from this!

Same thing happened to my friend's EC two weeks ago, only he ripped his chest open. Has to take him to the vet for some barbed wire induced surgery. The next day, he was up and ready to go again, although confined by doctor's orders. Nice blog!

The amount of stuff that can hurt a dog is scary. It's a wonder more aren't hurt. Thanks!
