I'm actually from the Burke/Gregory area. That vet actually took over and bought the Vet building in Burke also,so he has one in Burke and Gregory. A few years ago, my lab, probably 3-4 years old at the time got cut on the chest by a barbed wire fence, chasing after a wounded bird. She stood up on the side of the pickup, in the back, and we noticed a large hole in her chest, you could stick your thumb through it. Vet did a nice job and stitched her up. Something happened though on the way back to MN, the wound starting getting really big, filling with fluid. Had to take her to the Vet up here in the Cities, and they had to insert 4 rubber tubes into/out her chest, to help the area drain fluid out. She had to wear one of my t-shirts around the house for 2 weeks while that drained. Sucked because she missed out on our next pheasant hunting trip back to SD because of it. I guess it got infected....... I bought her a vest immediately for the next season of pheasant hunting, and never had a problem again. She also learned and does well with barbed wire fences now.
