Just checking on little Amara. Hope she is well and on the mend. |
How scary OMG:eek: I'm glad that you are okay, and that Amara appears to be okay so far. Please do take her to the vet ASAP, there could be internal injuries that you cannot see and you won't see any symptoms until it's too late to help her. |
Checking to see what the vet did for you sweet Amara. |
Oh my! How scary! I hope she will be ok!!! Bless her heart and bless you! I know that was scary! |
Did you take her to the vet? Is she ok? Please update |
Wow I am so sorry to here this, I know you had to have been scared! This is not your fault how could you have known? Don't blame yourself. My heart goes out to you and your poor baby, I hope she makes a full recovery. |
I have nothing against pit bulls (what beautiful animals) but it's a whole other story when they are in the hands of " Irresponsible " owners. Most states have strick regulations about pit bulls running freely and being muzzled while in public. The owner should be held accountable ! Dont for a minute think that you did anything wrong. . . I would take your gal to the vet to be totaly 100% sure she is ok! |
Please update us. |
The suspense is killing meeee! I hope she is doing good... when there's long pauses to reply I always assume the worst :/ but hoping for the best!! |
How is amara?? |
Amara is all right everyone. Her wounds aren't too bad and they told me to keep an eye on her leg to see if she starts to heal ok. But I am to take her back in a couple of days. I bathed her tonight to try and relieve some stress with some soothing dog shampoo and conditioner. She's asleep right beside me right now. Her leg still hurts so she carries it in the air still. But I have antibiotics and I cleaned her little wounds. They are not too bad. Just where the dog attempted to kill her. I reacted in time I guess. But she's ok. I cuddle her alot and we sit at home and watch tv. Cartoons and stuff. I take her outside in her little crate in the evenings to watch the sunset and the cars go by. She still tries to protect me and bark at people when they get within walking distance of me. I love her to death. Will keep everyone updated. Sorry it took me so long. I'm still in shock. But she is ok. I just have to keep a close eye on her. Will post more later. |
It means alot that alot of people responded. I needed the support. I've been in shock for days. My hubby told me she is alright and comforted me alot. He's a big help. But She's alright. Resting alot. I keep her laying down and well nourished. I treat her very well and she may get a piece of chicken. A small piece as a little snack. But she is just mainly resting. Until she potties or tries to follow me. It makes me sad when she does. I try to stay beside her because she wines and will jump down to follow me. I'm going to put her to bed soon but I am just letting her rest beside me right now. Thanks guys. Hope everyone and their babies are doing ok. |
Did they do an X-ray on get limp leg? So glad to here she is okay poor baby! Glad you got her to the vet and away from the dog in time! :) prayers and thoughts are for you! |

I'm sorry but if my dog was holding up a leg and not using it I would DEMAND my vet do an x-ray. "they don't think its broken?" I don't care what they "think", I'd want proof. An x-ray takes all of 30 seconds to do and will determine if the leg is broken or not. What if you don't have an x-ray done and after a week or two she still isn't using it? then you go to get an x-ray and they realize it IS broken and has been broken since she was attacked. Now you and your vet have let this poor little dog suffer for weeks because you "think" she is ok. And now you have a broken leg that hasn't been properly set or fixed immediately so it is starting to heal wrong. Plus the ends of the broken bone parts are no longer sharp because they've been grinding together so they won't fit back together perfectly. Most likely the leg will need surgery to fix because it was neglected and the surgery will probably be harder to do because its not a "fresh" injury. Please do your dog a favor and take her to a proper vet to have an overall evaluation and leg x-ray done. |
