I hope you were able to find out what happened to your little dog. I saw the injury/bite, whatever that was and it saddened me. I hope you got help. I have three Yorkies. One night, 11:30 pm, just before bedtime, my hubby let the dogs out. One came rushing back in and then started picking at itself as if something was wrong. I could 'read' his body language. I felt around quick and pulled something off. Turned out a bee had stung him! I ran , got the tweezer and pulled out the stinger and applied Benydral. Hubby and I RAN to the emergency vet. They watched him, and told me what steps to take and for how long. I was told I did the right thing with the Benydral.
Another time he stepped on a fire ant mound. I thought he was having a seizure or a heat stroke! We ran to the vet, they couldn't find anything wrong, BUT, I then saw a couple of bites and did the Benydral thing again!

ANYTIME a dog starts to act unusual, check for the following:
Poop stuck to their butt, twigs/bugs stuck on their fur, insects clinging or biting , any insect bites. If their behavior changes, licking, scooting on the floor, etc. Also, the internet and lists like this are very useful and informative.

Hmmm...I kinda like that idea about letting Jack out by himself, without Bella there. Just see what happens.

You said they do play a lot, and Bella could have hurt Jack totally by accident!

Whatever happened, he does have to be trained to go outside as if he had just arrived at your place and had never been outside.

The only non-vet thing I can think of is Kennel Drops; they go in the dogs' water.

Prayers that Jack is all right soon.

How about an update? How are things going? Figure out what caused the wound?
