    I have to say that is much worse than I thought it would be. Poor Giselle, I hope she heals quickly. Does she act afraid around Ivy now?

    I, too, have to agree, that looks much worse than I thought. I hope she heals quickly, and that Ivy and she are able to live in the same house without any further incidents.

    I'm so sorry to hear about poor Giselle. I hope she gets well soon!

    We have to be extra careful with food, too, because Adele has attacked both corgis over food before. Now she is crated at mealtimes (hers and ours) and while we are cooking. It seems to work because other than that they get along fine.

    Yeah, I wasn't expecting it to look so bad either because the original wounds weren't gaping or extremely large. But the vet had to cut off a bit of skin to stitch Gis up properly and she had to put a drain in by puncturing another hole, sooo it does look pretty bad =/

    But per Freedom's request, here are some better pics of Gis

    ETA: Giselle isn't really scared of Ivy, but I think she's still traumatized by everything. She doesn't act normally around Ivy, but I think most of it is pain and stress.

    I hope the pain meds kick in and she heals soon.

    Would your regular vet talk to your parents about this aggression thing, or would one of them come with you?

    Aw, that last photo of Giselle's beautiful face and gorgeous eyes is wonderful.
    They say that things usually look worse than they really are...

    So here's to more praying that Gissy heals up well and quickly!

    I think the way she is acting stressed around Ivy is because she is not feeling well. Giselle knows that she cannot move or react as normal and that is more what she is reacting to than Ivy herself. Dogs don't seem to take these type of things into stride better than we do. Please give that beautiful girl a big kiss on that gorgeous nose for me.
