Other than the actually cut he’s absolutely fine. Vets have priced it up at £600 () to put him under and stitch it, pain killers and everything else. Seems unbelievable how much money but I’ve never been in for anything like this before!? However, I’ve heard horror stories of dogs and barbed wire ripping there c*cks off and worse so overall I’m glad it should be fairly straight forward. Hes 13 months old, started him off lightly 2 or 3 months ago and he’s done ok, no world beater but he’s mine, we’ll be back at it Sept/ October. Cheers. thing of nothing to be honest.

Qbgrey 4,091 Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Can’t beat a old school working dog vet . Is 600 quid to far away to get your dog put right ? I don’t think so better let get them done right . I have treated some terrible wounds in the past but the vet will be needed at some stage of lurcher ownership 4 Quote Link to post
