I was just checking in and glad to hear that Rusty is home and recovering! Sorry that he had to go through this! |
How's Rusty today? I woke up with YT on my mind this morning, and Rusty in particular. |
Just checking to see how Rusty is doing today. |
2 Attachment(s) :wub: Thank you all for thinking of Rusty and keeping him in your thoughts and prayers :wub: Well, he is doing okay...he will have some pain every now and then, but he was out trying to chase a squirrel late yesterday when I let him out. Today, he hasn't gotten out of the house, but once when I made him go out to use the bathroom. The bandage the vet put on, kept sliding down and covering his wee-wee and hurting him...we could try to pull it back up, but it would just slide back down. So we cut it off and use all the gauze and doggie bandage stuff I had, but I didn't have enough to go around his neck/arms to hold it up...so it looked just like what the vet had done...and today, it was sliding down... I finally used some of the gauze and an old sheet and made my own bandage type thing to cover his booboo. It has been on all day! :thumbup: I took some pictures...sorry, they are graphic....but I wanted to show it. You can see all the stitches and the drainage tubs sticking out of each end...and you can also so how the bandage kept slipping down...all the way off the booboo. Attachment 192223Attachment 192224 |

OMG, poor Rusty! I haven't even read through this entire post, I just had to express my sympathy for the guy. He must be one tough fellow. I hope he's doing well! Well, I'm off to read on and see if you've found anything new out. Just saw your updates. Glad he's doing well! DArn fedex! |
Glad Rusty is on the mend. Lab I presume? Love Labs and Goldens. Very innovative, Jen218.:thumbup: Joanne :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :dog: |
OMG, Jenn. I just saw this. Poor Rusty!! Those pics made my heart flip/flop. That must be sooo painful for him. What an awful way to learn about big truck bumpers. Prayers for a super quick recovery with no after-effects. Give him a big hug from all of us. |
I am so sorry this happened:( Poor baby:( |

OH Jenn Honey.. I am so so sorry Poor Rusty has gone though this...I Feel for you. I went though something really similar with a Golden I had. That cut looks Really bad and Sore too. I hope he makes a really fast recovery |
:love: Thanks you all :love: He is doing better today...he has his moments when he seems really sore and spacey, but then moments when he is hyper and jumping about like nothing is wrong. He goes back in by Wednesday -- we will more than likely take him in tomorrow (we are under winter weather warnings today, so don't want to get out). The tubes are sooooooo GROSS! :eek: I had to put something on over them because they are just NASTY and plus, I think he would try to chew on them if they weren't covered! :eek: |
Oh Jenn, your homemade bandage looks like it is holding up! Hope Rusty is doing better. Shooter got his staple & stitches out Sat. & is back out with th other Lab!! |
Jenn -- I am so very sorry about Rusty. What a nasty cut!!!! It looks like barbed wire. We don't have any barbed wire fences, but I have seen plenty of b/w cuts on horses.... When the stitches are out and the incision has closed up, the emu oil will help to keep scarring down :). I am going to send you something that will help to keep the bandage on. Your package is going out today so you will have it soon. |
I don't know how I missed this thread ......That was a horrible looking cut!!!....Thank goodness it was one of those things where it looked worse than what it was!.....I'm so glad for you and Rusty and that he his healing up nicely......It's to bad you couldn't find the source of the cut so you could possible fix or move the item...... |
