Bad But Lucky Cut From Wire Fence

[low plains drifter 10,365]

one injury that can occur from a lurcher that jumps a barbed wire fence and gets it's back quarters hung up,around the saddle area,I know of 2 bitches that got this injury the first one was stitched and it tightened her skin to the extent that she walked with a strange movement,the other one broke her stitches and recovered after being advised to treat her with antiseptic wound powder,a stitch in time saves 9 lol

that looks crazy, hope it has a good recovery and as much barbed wire has its uses it doesnt need to be on every fence in the country i can see it can keep livestock in areas but the amount of damage it causes not just to the public but to the livestock its ment to protect whats the point, iv lost count the amount of times iv had my dogs tore up by the stuff.... i hate it with a vengeance

had a bitch one time got hung up on a double fence 1 vet said stitches etc etc £££££££,,,, other vet who actually owned running dogs said stitching was a waste of time then proceeded to cut the flap of skin off with a pair of scissors sprayed with some blue antiseptic gave the tin and said every other day clean with salty water and spray the bitch made a perfect recovery this bloke didnt charge me a penny!!

Hope she is better soon. Thats the risks of running long dogs and they aint scared and sorry to say she will probs do it again... Hopefully not.. Mine hit tree other week and dislocated front leg and split all chest, legs and sides open...

 

Get well soon girly.
