Buck went to the emergency clinic

[dappledoxie]

I bet that was very scary and upsetting, I'm glad Buck is ok! Claire's had to get after Tucker a few times but she didn't really bite him, Rebel did but he didn't bite hard and luckily Tucker got the point. They all seem to get along great now but I still watch them and keep Tucker away from them when I know they are aggravated, such as when he keeps trying to jump on them when they aren't in the mood, and he stays apart from them when we leave the house.

Poor Buck. I'm glad he is better now.

Is he living with you now?

I haven't been around much lately so I didn't know if he was home with you now or not.

How scary that must have been! I'm so glad that Buck is ok. I hope you are ok, too- it was probably unavoidable and I hope you don't blame yourself. Puppies are very resilient and of course he still loves his new family!!

Thanks everyone. Pet Talk really can make me feel better

Oh, I'm so sorry. I know how you feel! When Jada attacked Ebony it was awful. It only happened the one time so hopefully that will be the case with Mandy and Buck. Its sure no fun to see is it? I'm so glad Buck is ok.

I think that is how this will turn out. Nova understood after one "attack" that Mandy was alpha.

I'm glad Buck is feeling better. When we got Morty he bit my Mom and me, but then he adjusted and it was over. Maybe Mandy just needs to adjust to Buck and then she'll be fine.

Yes, I'm sure that's it. I knew this would happen, I just didn't know it would be this bad.

Well you can't blame either of them, but more importantly Sarah you CAN NOT blame yourself. IT was going to happen sooner or later (as you said) but its unfortunate that it happened sooner rather than later.

All that matters is that he is ok! And I can assure you he does NOT hate his new family in the least bit. This was a rather unfortunate lesson, but it did teach him not to mess with Mandy, and this will probably never happen again

Cheer up and don't be sad! He is ok!

Thank you, that means a lot

How scary. Im glad he is ok.

So is Buck officially yours now?

Yes, he has been here "for good" since Friday. I haven't been on since then because we had a really, really great weekend together hanging out with my friend and her new Lab puppy. But he is officially mine now

Poor Bucky buddy! He must have been so scared. And YOU must have been, too! I'm so glad he's alright.. How old is he now?

He's 7 1/2 weeks. I wanted him to be much older and stronger before Mandy established her dominance. Nova was 4 months, and she was big enough that her whole head didn't fit in Mandy's mouth like in this case. Mandy only bit him once and all of her canines made a puncture wound (she only has three canine teeth).

Poor Buck. I'm glad he is better now.

Is he living with you now?

I haven't been around much lately so I didn't know if he was home with you now or not.

I haven't posted about him coming home, but yes he is mine now

How scary that must have been! I'm so glad that Buck is ok. I hope you are ok, too- it was probably unavoidable and I hope you don't blame yourself. Puppies are very resilient and of course he still loves his new family!!

Thank you I was blaming myself at first, with all of the "what ifs". My mom was doing the same because she was also in the room with me but she couldn't see the dogs where she was.

Aww, I'm so sorry that this happened. I know how scared you must have been. Its been said before but you can't blame yourself and you also can't blame the dogs. It sounds like you handle everything really well and I'm wishing a speedy recovery for Buck. I can't wait to see more pics of the little guy. I'm so in love with him!

Congrats on your new baby boy

Thank you very much. I have hundreds of pictures here that I've been hiding from you all. I'm sure I could find a few to post
