Whippet Injury Update


Recommended Posts

You sound like a very level headed and honest man, with his dogs best interest at heart, how very refreshing!! :victory:

 

Well done.

thanks means alot :D

 

Best of luck with your dog mate a small bit of advise for you is if you know any one with a cold lazer for treating injuries in atheletes try and get them to lazer the wound after the stitches are removed and it will speed up the healing process from the inside out ok

and if you are near a hydro pool (heated)a few gentle swims at first then build him up with gradual swims say 4xswims for 2mins each time then increase the 2min swim up to another 1 min every 2econd swim until you get to 8or 9 mins ok and try giving warm jacuzzi afterwards you will have him back in no time without putting too mutch pressure on the bad leg hope this helps ok

The swimming is a good idea and will work wonders, i cant however imagine that many hydrotherapy pool life guards will be cool with you cruising in there with whippet for a few lengths,

It might be an idea to try getting him swimming somewhere outdoors (thats safe, no current etc..)

My advise to you is try and get a canine hydro pool a lot of the greyhound men use them BUT YOU NEED THE WARM WATER BECAUSE THE WARM WATER WILL NOT RESTRICT THE FLOW OF BLOOD THROUGH THE BLOODVESSELS (UN LIKE COLD WATER THAT WILL) IN THE DOG WHICH WILL ALLOW THE HEALING PROCESS TO BEGIN A LOT EASIER the cold water is grand for any dog BUT the warm water will help with injuerd animal a lot more

fair enough if there are places where, as a member of the public you can take dogs for a swim, at a realistic cost, then great. And i did/do understand where you are coming from re warm water..

 

Just had visions of someone turning up to the local swimming baths and asking for 2 passes to the big pool and 4 arm bands..

Great Job :thumbs: Just add the bill onto the pile for the "sanctuary" Your dog was in perferct fitness before it was attacked and should be brought back into shape at their expense.

hope your insured mate and it will all be worth it in the end :victory:

yep he's insured but as my dog was attacked by a sanctuary dog and i only live down the road, after 2 meetings with them they are covering all the costs of the vets

 

they have bought new harnesses leeds and muzzles which i made sure off, i cudnt stop it happening to my dog but any other lads who have dogs like mine atleast the procautions that r put in help a little!

 

Has the dog that did the damage been sorted?
