I felt sorry for the lady who through a hissy fit about the Great Dane, I know how she felt, and it was great that she actually owned up to her mistake.
I'm shocked to read about the Australian Shepard. Was the attack by an intruding dog, or one of his own pack? That must have been a horrible job for you, and I hope the other dogs are safe.
Mini Strokes can be a blessing in disguise, they do tell you that something broken and action needs to be taken or serious consequences will result, they can be a huge wake-up call. Hope you FIL get better soon and I also hope this week is boring for you! |
I actually thought of that myself. There were posters and photos put all over the place and no one claimed him. The morning I find out he was HW positive I called my friends and told her that if the owner contacted them wanting him back, they would not get him back!! I forgot to mention that he also has caulifower ears. In other words, his ears were so infected that it caused hematoma's which burst. His ears are a little deformed, so his hair is long so you cant really notice it. In my opinion if a person was a responsible owner, the dog would be on HW preventative, neutered and his ears wouldnt be like this. Of course, the owner didnt ever claim him.
I was glad the lady apologized. I was definitely hacked when she started attacking me, when I KNEW Henry did not poop. Ugh...it was crazy. But, I put a Thank you Card on her door and explained that it was ok, mis understandings happen every day. I am not one to hold a grudge if one apologizes, I thought that was very sweet of her.
We are actually wondering if the Australian shepard was attacked by something else. IT was so brutal. I guess we will never know. The boxer was also bleeding. He has a lot of swelling, nothing major. He got to come home today.
They decided not to admit my FIL he feels fine now. I think you are right, it was a good thing he had this episode to warn him. THey are doing all kinds of tests today and tomorrow.
