Haven't 'blogged' for a bit as I had a nasty nip about a week ago from a pooch that objected to having a haircut! Twelve years old, and never been trimmed! No - don't ask me why the owners suddenly decided "now is the time" to give Sadie a long overdue session with a pooch-hairdresser - but there you go! None so queer as folks!
Sadie really, really didn't want her front feet tidied up - and when the ignorant groomer insisted - she gave her the chop! Nasty deep chomp about 2cm long! Dog bites can't be stitched - and I sure as hell wasn't going to casualty for a 5 hour wait, a pat on the head and a quick slosh in saline followed by an antibiotic jab!
So I chose to bung on some iodine ointment, wound a plaster around the bite nice and tight - snapped on a surgeon's glove, and carried on! No stroppy old bitch was going to get the best of this one!
The bite is slowly healing after grinning and weeping at me for days! Must learn to move faster I guess!
