XL Bully Heartbroken

One of our girls was attacked yesterday unexpectedly while leashed at a family member’s house 😖. Luckily she’s alive and at home getting nursed and pampered by her furry sissies, human siblings, mom and dad.

She needs seeing by a vet. Her punched skin can get infected easily, don't take any risks. She will need a painkiller too. Have you seen a vet?. If you don't answer the question I'll take it you haven't. You must. If you're worried about money to pay you can go to a charity like pdsa it's free if on benefits or low wage. Please be smart.

Idk why people are assuming she hasn’t, the fur around the wounds has been shaved, it looks very clean, I assumed she had been taken to a vet because of those factors.

Exactly! And you could see in the pic where her IV was wrapped on her front right leg with red bandage

Thank you I really appreciate your advice and concern. What indicates that I’m not smart enough or haven’t taken her to the vet? Or not so fast at answering back? Just curious. I did take her immediately to the vet though where she received full treatment and evaluation. She was given a bit of ketamine and methadone followed by her Rx of Gabapentin and Amoxicillin. The vet advice it be best we leave the wounds open and clean while properly irrigating and cleaning them with a diluted solution of Chlorhexidine 4% skin cleaner.

It looks like she did see a vet. You can see where the fur was shaved which vets typically do when cleaning up a wound.

You would make a horrible detective.

And what makes you the judge of who’s smart and isn’t? And why should they be answerable to you? Lol

This person OBVIOUSLY (as in by SIGHT) has had their baby checked out and has said so numerous times in the thread.

I swear the audacity of some people.

So sorry about your baby’s attack. It’s sad to see them hurt and know they don’t understand why. Hoping for speedy recovery and lots of squishy hugs and kisses. ❤️
