Prayers please!

[animal_rescue]

Earlier today I set up the bathroom for the piggies to have floor time. I left them in there with their shelter and a plate of fruit and veggies. Shut the door and would go in to check on them from time to time. Well my older sister came home to take a shower and she swears she shut the door when she was done. I think she's lying but my dogs got a hold of the guinea pigs. My little sister heard Squishy screaming and ran in there to see Roxie chewing on Squirt. She got all the dogs out of the bathroom and then my dad came and got me. I went in there and while neither of them are hurt Squirt's fur is wet and he isn't acting right at all. I picked him up and he put no fight into me not holding him, he usually does. He won't even run around now. He just kind of walks and sleeps. Squishy is laying down now and won't go near Squirt. I'm hoping their just exhausted from what happened and will be okay. I feel horrible for them, it was an accident and I know my fault. Please pray they will be okay and will start acting fine soon.

Oh no. It wasn't your fault, it was obviously an accident and no one really knows how it happened. Let's just hope and pray that the little piggies will be okay. They are either just very shocked and traumatized from the sudden attack, or hopefully they don't have some severe muscle or bone damage. Let's just hope that they are just very shocked and need time to come around.

I"m praying for the little guys.

Megan,
I am so sorry to hear this! of course my prayers are with you.

We have piggies too, and although my dogs leave em alone....except for Rusty who steals them and mothers them., we have had a friends dog grab one, Miss Gummypig acted the same way, after a call to the vets, he told us to watch for labored breathing(possible broken ribs) to closely monitor water intake, and to make sure there was a heating pad set on low for her to lie on (we placed it under the cage so she couldn't reach the wires or the pad) we added all her fave treats. She made a full recovery, after 48 hours.

I hope that helps you to relax, I am certain you are already doing these things, but just in case you forgot one.

Btw, we were snowed in which is why we didn't take her to the vet, and just called him instead.

We will pray for you and your precious piggies.

Hugs to you and Maggie the wonder Dobe!

I'm so sorry, you must have been scared to death! Please don't blame yourself though, accidents happen.

Here's to praying they'll start acting normal soon <3

[animal_rescue]

Thanks guys, yes I'm watching them very closely right now. Squishy is eating/drinking/walking around fine now. But Squirt is still sleeping.

[chocolatepuppy]

Oh no! Prayers headed out for your piggies. I hope they're both ok.

[sweetpatata6]

[freckledimple]

I hope your piggies feel better soon.

[CatLuvrs]

My prayers are with you and the piggies. We had our lab do that to Marissa's when she was 3 scared her to death and me. I hope they are ok

[Crayons09]

prayers on the way for your pigs! Borris sends get well wheeks to your two.

[animal_rescue]

Thanks guys, my babies are doing okay for now. They've been eating, drinking, and are beginning to walk around. Although I can tell something is still wrong, possibly they are still shaken up by it all. Sad I'm just so sad to not see Squirt popcorning like he usually does and Squishy isn't very talkative right now. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

Also I stuck a heating pad under their cage as well and it seems to be working nicely.

[Zippy]

I will keep your piggies in my prayers.Hope they feel better soon.
(((HUGS)))to you.

[Genny]

I'm sorry! I hope they gte better! I bet he'll be alright though. I'll say a prayer for them both tonight

[sweetpatata6]

Good to see their doing better!! Please keep us up dated!

[animal_rescue]

Thanks everyone! I'm way happy to say they are both doing great today. When I got home from school Squishy and Squirt both talked to me about their day and how I'm starving them, ect.. Also Squirt was his normal bratty self when I was cuddling him. So I'm pretty sure everything is fine with both of them. YAY
