So, it's been forever since I've posted...where shall I start?? In the past couple of weeks Py and I have experienced quite the excitement. To start it off, we decided to get a black lab. The guy who gave him to us had him trained, he just didn't have any time to spend with him. So, on Sunday December 13 we welcomed Ace into our family. He is a very smart and intelligent dog and we love him so much! Later that week, we unexpectedly inherited a Weimaraner as well. We learned very quickly that Ranger (the Weimaraner) and Ace did not get along. We had to keep them apart for the most part. The day after we got Ranger, yet another incident happened and a horrible one at that! I had spent most of the day outside with the dogs making sure that they didn't hurt each other. Eventually, they started to get along. Py's Company Christmas party was that night, so he happened to get off at 5 instead of 6. The dogs had wandered off together and I was outside calling them up to the house. First came Ace, then Ranger. We could not find Kona. We searched for 30 minutes and then Py finally found him. We do not know what happened, but something (one of the big dogs most likely) got a hold of our little dog. We rushed him to the Vet in Throckmorton. He was bleeding from his neck and had air pockets from his ear down to his hind legs. It was so scary! He ended up staying the night with the vet and we went to pick him up the next day. Fortunately, his wounds were not fatal. He suffered from a punctured lung and many wounds on his neck. He spent many days lying around and feeling pretty crappy. Now, he is back to his usual self and we are so glad he made it through. As for what exactly happened to him, we will never know. But, we did get rid of the Weimaraner and everything has been great since. Here is a picture of our sweet Kona Brown wrapped up in his bandage:
This is the day after it happened, when we brought him home. You can kinda see the wounds on his neck.
