    Mudcat sometimes we are not even hunting. I exercise them down old farm roads. Shes had alot of action in the past 6 weeks. Its not uncommon to be exercising them, they pull up on game just off the road. Not much you can do at that point but dispatch the game as fast as you can.

    Thanks so much for the responses guys. I love my dog and dont care to see her in a bad way if there is something I can do for her. Going to the vet everytime she scraps is just not an option for us. Is there such a thing as body armour I can get for her? Where do you get it? I would like to make sure her throat and neck are not exposed. We dont hunt in the ground. Most of our game is in buildings or in the open.

    Thats why I Am here guys just looking for practical advice. So dont warm bath them got that. Wash out injury with something else??? I Am guessing antiseptic solution. Do any of you guys try to put cold packs on the dog? My dog at the end of a workout just wants to be left alone. Like I said new to terriers.

    The day the dog gets worked, its hard to see the damage. She usually looks okay and runs about fine. Ive just always brought her home and put her in a tub of warm water to wash off the dirt and hopefully wash any infection out of her wounds. The next day is the worst of it. It seams she swells more and more every time. Thankyou JCB for a proper answer. I kept coon hounds for years and we did very little for our dogs. They where hardy dogs and I never seen a dog swell up in the head like this ever. Any other constructive advice on what to do much appreciated. I would

    Hello fellows I have two bitches, mother and daughter. The mother is a real good dog. But when she gets game she really sacrifices herself while working. It seams everytime she finds game, she gets worse off than the last time. Her head gets big (swollen) usually the next day. I would like to hear from experienced terrier men just to see what better I can do for my dogs. Is there an antiseptic or shot I can give her to stop or slow the damage that usually ends up on her face/head? Any help appreciated.
