It wasn't a deep puncture, the dogs tooth just made a wide hole on the skin so she got some sutures and antibiotics. She is HOME!! Well, at my boyfriends parents house at least. We are leaving to go back to College Station instead of staying here got Christmas. It would be too much stress on Luma being crated all day or being around tons of people and kids.
When we came to get her from the vet she was back to her happy little self. Tail wagging, standing up, just with a cute pink taped up leg. I'm having to keep her calm haha. Idk what happened with a animal control. Tony was handling it while I slept. I haven't heard about the dogs but I imagine they will ne euthanized when caught. I don't care about the expense of the vet. This is why I ALWAYS have a fund of at least a grand set aside just for Luma. Sorry if I scared you guys, it was very scary myself and I still feel sick reliving it. |
I am so happy Luma and you both are doing well. I am concerned about you having received the full series of rabies shots needed when a person is possibly exposed to rabies.... Be sure you follow up on that, as the initial treatment is 2 injections, followed by a series, spaced out over several days.
I am sorry you and BF are not going to be able to spend Christmas with his parents...I am sure they are sad too, about having to miss Christmas with their son and you...do they insist you keep Luma crated while she is there? Next year, if they want you to come for Christmas, I would make it clear Luma can not be kept crated the whole time! If they insist, then I would maybe see if I could have one of your family members keep Luma....that would certainly be better for her than the stress of being crated 24 hours a day, and all the people that are always around at Christmas. Or you could even get a motel room and you and bf and Luma could stay at a motel, where you could leave Luma while you are at the parents house, with all the kids and festivities.
