Title: Cut dog
Post by: Piglywigly on February 08, 2010, 08:17:07 pm
Dog is swelling and was already given 6cc of pen g last night, and cut cleaned well. Gave 5 cc today. Dog got flung and poked bad between front legs just inside of leg hole of vest. He is starting to pant a little bit, but doesn't seem to be running a temp. Nose is warm though, and breathing is labored slightly. Any suggestions of what to do or what is possibly going on. Going to bring him to vet tomorrow.

How long did it take for the dog to start acting weird? What was the outcome?
