A neighbour sent me a message today in the morning.
– Do you know them?
In our sparsely populated hamlet we know most of the dogs, and those didn't look familiar.
– One of them has an injured leg – the neighbour said when I called him.
The neighbour is a good person, but a cat person, and has very little experience with dogs. Also, his cars are always clean, and mine are not, so it was obvious who would drive to the vet.
He followed the dog and told me where she decided to lie on the grass. I got there, and it was a sorry sight. She was lying in the grass on the side of the road, not moving, growling weakly when I tried to get close.
The vet showed us two deep punctures in the upper part of the leg, most probably a dog bite. We have a suspect – an aggressive dog from a nearby village that often walks to our hamlet – but no proof. Doesn't matter. The dog was given painkillers and antibiotics, the wounds didn't qualify for stitching (deep, but stitches would not help much an be a potential risk)

🤣 and I hope this girl is able to recover. Are you going to adopt this dog?
