Puppy update...not good

Lounge

I wasn’t sure at first if I should put this in the diag/other forum or here, opted for here.

I put the puppy and my other three dogs outside into the short fenced yard, my older dogs can jump the fence but don’t.

I let them out, went back inside to prep their evening meal…and the screaming started. not barking, not howling, not yelping, screaming. I got outside and my idiot, POS, screaming retard of a neighbors coon hound had my puppy by the head. He dropped her when my rescue lab shep pit mix went after him.

Little puppy has a 50/50 chance of living through the night, but will likely lose her left eye, and possibly her right as well.

Hope, my Rescue dog…does not have as much of a chance. My vet is out of state, no other vet will take my dogs without charging a huge fee for an emergency visit. My vet will be back in the morning. if they make it, both dogs will go to her at 8 AM.

Hope looks like she went through a wood chipper. I stopped the bleeding. Even if she lives, she will be missing the right side of her face, including the eye, and her front right leg is badly broken.

My neighbors dog…looks exactly like it should, as if someone beat it to death with a shovel. Because that is exactly what happened. I am not proud of the way I lost control, I feel bad for beating the dog, but he refused to let go of Hope’s leg.

My neighbor has already called the cops on me for killing his dog. /I countered with showing the responding officers my two dogs. The younger cop had to leave the house and sit on the front porch. The hound is being taken to a lab for rabies testing.

Normally, if I was well medicated, I would be having a hard time anyway, because this is terrible. But I flushed my meds a week ago, during a paranoid delusion that they were brainwashing me, and my insurance wont pay for more for another week.

So unmedicated, plus all this crap, makes for a very unstable, very dangerous person. My neighbor already called me to say he was going to come take of it personally. I have no idea what ‘it’ is, but I called the cops.

For some back ground info, this coon hound has been reported for killing chickens, cats, and sheep in the area. But the owner kept insisting it wasn’t his dog. Well now we have proof, at a terrible cost.

please keep the little one in your prayers, and Hope too. Hope may very well have sacrificed herself. If she makes she wil get a sirloin steak every night for dinner for the rest of her life. If she doesn’t…I have a very special place for her remains.

Curses placed on my neighbor are also welcome.

That’s the saddest ■■■■ I’ve heard all night.

That’s my reaction too. That’s too bad @Dremulf . You might need to have both dogs put down. I hope for your sake and the dogs sake that it won’t happen but there may be no choice.

I know it. I’ve already decided, if I lose both, I’m not getting another dog…ever. I’ll keep my other two until they pass, but no more after that. I cant deal with this, I cant.

Sending prayers and hope

That’s so shocking and sad. I hope your dog and the puppy pull through.

UPDATE.

Just got back from the vet. Puupy has a 90% chance of surviving, but will almost assuredly lose sight in her left eye.

Hope is not fairing so well. There is no repairing the damage to her face. And her leg may have to be amputated, ebcuase the bone is not so much broken as it is crushed.

The Vet may end up adopting my puppy, because she will be in need of very expensive treatment for the next couple years, and I have to be realistic, I don’t have the knowledge or the funds to care for an animal that will most likely lose its sight before age 2.

Hope, if she survives, will also likely be looking for a home where she will be able to receive the best care.

This breaks my heart, but it is for the best. My mother, who adopted my puppy’s sister has offered to let me have her puppy, but I don’t think I will go with that plan. I just don’t think I can do that yet.

Puppy is going to be staying with the vet at her home for 24/7 care for the next couple days to watch the swelling. Hope wil be in the same home, with the vets family.

My neighbor did try to honor his threat of taking care of ‘it’. He showed up at my house with an aluminum bat. He will live, I only broke his arm…and the right side of his face. He didn’t try and go after me, if he had, he would have walked away without injury. He tried to go after my other two dogs. So I hit him with the same shovel I used on his dog.

I don’t remember who it was on here that suggested I get security cameras, but thank you, it was so easy to show the cops the footage and answer a few questions rather than get arrested.
