Dog with severe puncture wounds/lacerations _{Page 2 of 3}

I should mention too I have him on Ignatia for the grief from all this. Several times per day he goes from perky to depressed, sighing, you can see the past trauma affecting him from all the abuse and this recent attack.

I hope I chose the right remedy for this.

Thanks Erika for your support and everyone else as well.

Well I wanted to post before I went to bed. Computer is in my roommates room and he is a late sleeper.

The peroxide was a most excellent suggestions because it cleared the pus and cleaned out his wounds.

None of you are able to see his wounds, but to give you a very bizzare explaination of his chest wound, and all ladies will understand this, it looks like the entry to a vagina that is how deep it is.

The peroxide did such a great job that I can now see clear into the chest wound, all dead tissue and gunk is gone. High regards to Sabra.

The second does of Bellis really alleviated the swelling and pain in his leg and it seemed to bring the edges of the wounds, closer together. Two doses of Bellis and he walks on his leg like it is healed, quite amazing.

He is in our furnished garage because he has never been in a house, and we live at someone else's house for now. Any flies that make their way in he chases away. The only open wounds are on his chest and thigh which are covered by his body when he sleeps.

Any maggots will only eat the dead tissue so I am not worried and if God forbid they appear, I will flush them with peroxide.

I have to say with 21 other animals, a roommate, his kid, a husband who commutes almost 3 hours per day, and a very injured dog, this week has been the most trying of all on my husband and I and w/o all of you....I would have lost my mind. You all have given me the extra courage to know I can do this and avoiding the vet was the best choice. I've worked with a lot of sick animals but never an animal with open wounds like this.

We just stay focused on the blessing Buddy is alive and progressing towards being healed. If all of you could only see the incredible transformation he has made since we moved here, you would see why this is such a delicate case.

Minsa, thank you for your kind words...my family 4 and 2 legged is grateful for your support.

P.S. Right now he is sleeping on his pillow and blanket like a puppy, he has never had this before in his life.

Good to know Passkey.

He is doing this weird thing and I am concerned. For hours he will seem like he is fine his best times are at night when he is sleeping and by early am he looks well on the road to recovery. Then by 9AM he does the following and seems to be regressing.

The room he is in is warm, but his paws and ears are cold and he wants to lay on the cool floor. He shivers and shakes like he is cold but does not want to be covered.

Any advice?

NAMASTE

Thank you Passkey, I had a feeling Nat. Mur. would come up at some point, considering his past.

Minsa, he is eating and drinking, picky, but that is his normal demeanor.

He now goes outside for walks so his leg is 75 percent better already. Chest and arm laceration are still mending, back puncture wound, the deepes one is a doozie, but healing.

He tried to burst out of the door this morning, wanting to be back outside, so that was a good sign.

Touch and go with him, he is very sensitive, it is hour by hour with him. One minute he is a puppy on his back and the next minute he is sighing and depressed.

No sign of pus or infection, he cleans his wounds often as do I.

In case anyone wondered what kind of dog he is, he is a mix, golden lab and chow? He has everything golden lab, but his ears bend at the tips and his tail curves upwards. He has black lines around his eyelids like an Egyptian, so what a sweet face you can imagine.
Brown eyes and I think he is about 5 years old.

Hi,

I am still waking once per night to check on him, but am sleeping a bit more.

What does not kill you truly make you stronger.

But all that matters is Buddy, that he is on the road to recovery and that he knows his suffering and hardships are over for good.

He is eating, sleeping, walking around on the leash outside, but still sore on his back from the puncture wounds.

Remedies and peroxide are bringing a lot of pus and blood out of the wounds.

Leg is almost completely healed except for the open wound, which is sealing with new inner flesh and then I assume the top layer of skin will grow,

Chest wound is shrinking in size.

I am in the process of removing the bloody/dirty hair from around his back wounds. It pulls right out, he won't let me shave it, he freaks from the noise of the clippers.

Inch by inch with this guy, he has taught me great patience.

Thanks again to all,
I will always be grateful for all the help that has been provided.

Bless,

The more weirdos the better. It shows individuality and creativity.

Buddy is doing remarkable.

Several days ago his back puncture wounds oozed blood and pus, I could tell because it was gooey and pinkish in color. After that the holes were gone, and now it looks like small abrasions with scabs.

He let me brush him, and seems to love it, so lots of dried blood, dead fur, and dirt are coming off of him.

Chest wound is 60 percent closed and no infection.

Leg wound is growing another new layer of flesh.

He is eating, walking, drinking and completely back to normal after 1.5 weeks. Quite remarkable.

I am still giving him Bellis, one dose in the AM to get him through the day. And I am giving him Ledum, Hypericum, Echinacea, and that's it.

Last night I had him in the house for the first time, probably the first time he has ever been inside a home.

He walked into the laundry room and looked at me like, "What do I do now mom?"

He followed me into the living room and layed down on the carpet where he slept and rolled over for hours.

In two days he knows the commands down, lay down, sit, stay, etc. Amazing!

Thanks again, everyone, I will post again if there are any changes or when he makes his full recovery.

If any of you have a constitutional remedy in mind I would appreciate it for him.

Before this attack on him, he was abused and abandoned as I mentioned.

He also had this thing about chasing cars, he would see a truck, which he hated trucks, probably because the dope dealer drove one, and in a flash of a second, would be gone, tearing after the vehicle. This went on all day, every day, always chasing away cars, like he was afraid someone would come here and hurt him/us.

Very sudden in nature, can be walking along and if he sees or hears another dog, he will go into self-defense/guard mode. Sometimes he is too aggressive when he does this, even with play w/ the other animals.

He loves affection, cannot get enough of it, will push himself into the middle of me and another dog if he does not get enough attention.

Very picky with food, minimal thirst. Urine is always a very deep yellow because he does not drink enough water. He is a territorial marker when he pees, always.

Also he has this on and of again discharge from his penis creamy, greenish/yellowish in color.


Blessings and light,

Hey,

I gave Buddy a dose of Pulsatilla 10M last night and he drank water afterwards, which is unusual for him. He seems a lot less clingy with me today but is still pushy for attention and trying to chase cars. We shall see what the days bring.

His chest wound is 80 percent sealed, leg wound still needs to grow another layer or two of skin and everything else is healed.

He's now mostly in the house, loving it, sleeps and acts like he has done this before. No infection, no swelling. Yesterday we took all 4 dogs to the state park and they went in the water and ran around on leashes. What a great day we all had and it was my b-day as well!

My cat with the hematoma still has a swollen ear but it is reducing in size. She suffers from chronic ear problems (daek wax and itching) which I am trying to help her through with Psorinum and cleaning the ears. Very frustrating, since her diet is so pure.

Be well and thanks for checking in on my herd. It means a lot :)

Hi everyone.

Hats off to everyone who contributed to the healing of Buddy. He has made a complete recovery, almost 3 weeks to the date he was injured. He has some scarring and scabs that are still healing w/ Calendula but he is in great spirits.

Blessings to all,
NAMASTE
