Jolie Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 My dog (poodle shit-zhu mix) was attached by 3 dogs on Thursday evening. He ran out of my yard and was attached. I got to him very quickly but he was still badly hurt. He was in the vet for 2 nights and seems to not have any major injuries. He has some punctures and is sore all over. He did go into shock when he was attached. Well i took him home from the vet Saturday and he seemed to be doing well. Now tonight is seems to be in a lot of pain and his mouth is very wet. He won't sit still and is crying. It's too late to get him to a vet. I gave him his medicine as directed but the vet said I couldn't get him more pain medicine until tomorrow. I gave him a some piece of aspirin. I just hope he is not having some reaction. I just don't know why his mouth is so wet. Any ideas or suggestions!?

DogPaddle Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Some dogs will salivate when they are in pain. I'm no vet though, I'd take him in first thing in the morning. (Uncoated, plain aspirin will not cause a reaction in the vast majority of dogs though.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolie Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 Well I spoke to the vet and I think it might have been the spray that I used on his wounds. I think maybe I used too much and he licked his wounds. I used gential violet and screwworm spray. He seems fine this morning. He also threw up last night. The vet said I should not use too much but put it on a clothe and dab it on the wound... not spray it directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolie Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 The vet said I don't need to use so much just dab it on the wound which I did tonight. He is doing fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
