rapidjenky 97 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 could the rabbit of stuck a tooth into its shoulder? the little lump being a puncture wound? it probably just bruised it and i wouldn't worry to much but if by some freak chance a tooth broke the skin watch for infection.

Guest born to run1083 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I wouldn't think he would be hurt to bad but only you can judge weather he needs a vet, I'd be more worried of the phycological factors of the injury if he's a very young small pup doesn't take alot to knock there confidence at that age Quote Link to post

HAMMERDAN 25 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Was this the rabbit my whip x caught mate? The night we where out, or has it happened again? Didn't half hit the pup, I can imagine he will be fine. Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I wouldn't give pain killers unless he REALLY needs it, all they do is make him think he is totally fine and he will use the leg as such and possibly make it worse. If it hurts, he is less inclined to put weight on it and will rest it, leading to it healing. Just my thought. 2 Quote Link to post
