The wife suffered a pretty good dog bite to her left hand this evening. Got a call at work from her saying that Milo, my oldest EP bit her. Now Milo may lick you to death and biting someone is really not in his little doggy vocabulary.
Every day, twice a day the dogs get out to run. Before I feed I put everyone away and make sure the dogs are in and doors shut because I don't want anyone getting into the wrong pen while trying to feed.
Well futher investigation revealed she let them all out and then fed without them being put away. Obie was in his pen waiting on his food when Milo went running by and Obie apparently thought Milo was going to get in his pen and eat his food and went on the defensive. In the process of breaking up the fight that was happening Milo thought he was getting a mouth full of Obie when actually it was a mouth full of her hand!
Two stitches later, some butterfly bandaids, pain med, and some antibiotics to take we were back home and all was not good but better. Her hand is black and blue, swollen and hurts like, well, a dog bit hurts.
Milo and Obie do have a history between them. Obie has some sort of wierd dog crush on me and when any dog gets around me he takes offense to it. Out hunting he is just fine with other dogs. Put one in the yard near me and the little sucker turns into a devil!
Neither of the dogs were hurt.
