Dog fights...Part I

[Graves]

Get da ample amps!

Lucifer! That's funny!

All of ours are nothing but loving with people. They're just so damned high-strung, head-strong, stubborn, they're literally not afraid of anything and they have a tremendously strong hunting instinct. When something gets them fired up it's nearly imossible to shift their focus.

We flushed a dead mouse down the toilet one time. Our oldest terrier wanted that mouse so badly she stood on her hind legs with her front paws on the edge of the toilet seat for 7 hours...peering into the toilet, hoping against hope the mouse would reappear. She only got down when just physically couldn't stand like that any longer.

Summer time generally puts a stop to most of the aggession issues because all the dogs get to spend most of the day outside hunting squirrels, chipmunks, etc... They're too tired at the end of the day to mess with each other.

A couple of my customers are roommates. Both have large (husky) dogs. Both dogs are uber dominant and have to be kept kenneled, letting one out at a time.

A couple of months ago both dogs got out at the same time. I took four big guys to part the two dogs. Two dogs went to the vet and two guys went to the hospital. All four looked like they were in a bad bar fight.

Antibiotics are a must. I know exactly how you feel. I can't watch my dogs fight, the rare times that they do, either.

I paid the price as well for breaking up a fight. Snoop got a hold of my arm when I was pulling Tyson off of him. Left 2 nice holes.



The other hole was on the underside of my arm about an inch long, The doc was able to put his finger into it to his first joint.

Go get yourself taken care of and get some meds. They gave me an antibiotic iv over an hour and put in a tube to drain the fluid. I turned out fine.

This is why we need strict JRT registration and compliance. We also need to issue JRT permits from your local police department. Because we all know that 20 million people a year die from JRT attacks and accidents.

OK, Drilldo...you win!

What kind of dog did that?

Wasn't trying to win lol. Just making the point that we love our dogs and you should definitely get looked at. I had no idea JRT's were that tough.
A 122 lb Weimaraner did that. It was an accident. Tyson (87 lb boxer) kicked his ass for it. Poor Snoop has been apologizing for over 2 years now and occasionally bleeding when he pisses off Tyson.

Dang.
Blood and guts warning for this thread.

I don't usually worry about infection from minor wounds. But, I'm gonna head to the doc's tomorrow and get some antibiotics. This one will probably get infected if I don't.

I can't take a picture with my left hand (of my right arm) but here's the left hand. Best I can tell there are 5 separate bites:

yeah those look like they sting a bit! hope you got it taken care of!
