otter 61 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Don't listen to people who say that the dog is unlikely to run again: I've seen much worse on my own dogs, and they have healed fine. Obviously the bruising is a concern, and yes, the wound could break down and the skin die off, but nature is pretty miraculous and even if it takes a long time the dog will heal providing you follow the vet's instructions. As the vet has already told you the dog will run again, then listen to the vet, not someone on here who I doubt very much is a vet, or has had a great deal of experience. Just keep him quiet, clean the wound VERY gently every day with salt water: a teaspoon of salt dissolved in half a litre of previously boiled water which has been allowed to cool to luke warm. You might well end up with a scar with no fur on it, but that won't matter at all. Good luck. good post skycat .... the 2 things i would add is if the dog is not indoors or if you think he might be a bit cold put a heat lamp above him ... the other is kill the staffy Quote Link to post

ol26 2 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 true true - had a run in with a staff off the lead 2 weeks ago on holiday with my girlfriend - we had our pair on the leads a whippet x saluki and a full saluki pup - the staff went for the saluki pup but i managed to grap it collar before if got a propper bite in, wasnt going to boot it with flip flops on! - the owner was a F***king grade a W****ker - apparently it was our fault.... as you all say - its the owners. he needed a good hiding but im not going to loose any licences over it.. at the end of the day our dogs were ok and this guys always going to be a C**T - not a great start to the holiday though....we were very very lucky - could have been a different story..

coolbreeze 9 Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 not all staff owners are bad owners, my daughter has 2 they stay with my 6 whippets for hols no probs, but she rescued one not long ago fine for months then one day for no reason while free running she spotted another dog and went on the atack,not too much damage done but without hesitation she took this bitch to the vets and had her put to sleep, she was broken hearted but did the right thing. these dogs should be kept on leads at all timeor muzled while out unless well away from public ,cant blame the breed there like people some good some bad .owners are to blame especialy the idiots who think its trendy to own a powerfull dog .
