Daisy

On Sunday Titus took Daisy out when we got home, and she took off after a muskrat by our pond. Well, I don't know if she was going to play with it or hurt it, but the muskrat definitely felt threatened and attacked Daisy, slicing all the way through her lip, completely separating it :(

I have kind of a weak stomach, so I am thankful this picture is kind of blurry, but it does show her poor face.  It ended up getting worse before we could get her to the vet (she kept licking her lips, which only made it tear worse), but we were thankful we found one open on a Sunday (we live in the middle of nowhere), and only a few miles away!  


They of course had to stitch her up, and they had to keep her overnight, but they did a WONDERFUL job, and when she heals I don't think you will even be able to see a scar! She has to be on soft food for the next couple weeks while it heals, and she has medication we have to give her twice a day, but hopefully she will be as good as new very soon!
