Super Glue on wound? *Edit* Buddy's stitches are OUT!!

Poor Buddy. I hope your paw heals quickly. I hope my Layla never gets that bad about the storms and she's getting quite a bit of practice this week. It seems Angie, we have either no storms or one right after the other. I don't suppose that helps poor Buddy.

I know! What's with these storms lately?!? That's Ohio for you!!

I'm going to check out those wraps you girls are taking about!

It is so sad to see him freak out as bad as he does. It breaks my heart every time. If he's outside and hears something that scares him he'll try to get out of the yard. He'll try to jump over the fence and I've also seen him bite and grab hold of the fence as if he's trying to tear the fence down!!! Like he's trying to run away from the sound. I had an animal behaviorist tell me that maybe after he was dumped in the woods (and spent a few months running loose on his own) maybe he someone shot at him trying to kill him.

Pam, a 20lb dog did that!!
If I had a window that big that Buddy could get to I'd have to put bars on the INSIDE of the window

Oh my gosh Angie. I sure hope that behaviorist was wrong. I don't even want to imagine that happening to sweet Buddy! That is unbelievably sad and there are definitely people out there that could be that cruel!

Yes, my SIL's dog was 1/2 husky and 1/2 some sort of terrier. She never liked delivery people of any kind. They had two very low to the floor windows in their living room. This happened during the summer and my nephew was off from school. She got a phone call at work......"Mom, Jetta just broke through the front window because the UPS man came." She obviously had to leave work right away to tend to that. It turns out that after Jetta was outside all she did was run around barking. She never even went after the UPS man. Their other dog, a GSD that they got as a puppy, was afraid of thunder too, but she would go inside the fireplace to hide until the storms passed.

YIKES!
The wrap I'd need to buy for Buddy is $75!!

But then again, that's cheaper than the $180 vet bill from yesterday!

I thought I we were going to have to go back to the white coats for stitches again!!! Yesterday when I let them out the back door there was a bunny in the yard and they both took off after it!
(This rabbit has been trying to build a nest in my back yard for the past few nights! )
Because of where Bud's stitches are, he is only to be outside on a leash so he doesn't run and tear the stitches out. I called him back in the house and looked at his paw and I'd swear he partially torn his stitches out. The area doesn't look just like it did after the vet put the stitches in, but the wound is still being held together and that's the important part!
He's still being a good pup for Dr. Mom! He lies down on his side so I can get a good look at his paw when I change bandages and he takes his 4 pills a day like a good boy too!

Here's a few pictures...
I wish I would have taken a picture of his foot before the stitches, but anyway... here's after.






He is sick of me messing with him, I lay him down and roll him over 10 times a day to look at his foot!




...few more

And the princess... who tears Buddy's bandages off of his foot!!!




Here's Bud by the window he broke out and cut his foot on, and the same window that he jumped through the next day!!
"Humm.. maybe I should have used this door handle instead of breaking out the glass"
