No she pulled through the surgery. The boxer didn't puncture my yorkie outside skin but gave her a hernia in her abdominal wall.
Dogs are supposed to learn how to escalate. Like humans who get in a fight. It starts with an argument, then screaming, then pushing, etc. A dog that doesn't know how to escalate (growl, bark, intensify) i
No escalation, just stalk and then attacked. For the past year we chose not to walk our little dog over there or even let my 2 year old daughter even come close to wandering over there because of the shoddy fence.
I hope he/she is alright.
she made it through the surgery, she is all doped up on pain killers so she is as comfortable as she can be after a hernia surgery.. she will have to be moved from the emergency vet hospital to a closer boarding/vet for another day of recovery or so..
But the way you break up a dog fight is to pick up the back legs of the 2 dogs, so they are now only on their front feet.
I brought the energy and broke it up with literally just my energy. It was dark out. I didn't know if Sandy (my dog) went in there yard or if Bridget (boxer) came into our yard. So I ran and jumped the fence first thing and looked down for them and they were under the fence like more on our side of the fence. I got scraped up somehow, but I didn't even have to touch that dog and it felt my pure internal instincts and adrenaline ready to kill or do what ever I had to to separate them to save my family's life. Bridget felt my energy and ran and cowered from me. She is lucky my mother-in-law screamed the way she did because I stopped and took three steps back to get my gun, and granny screamed, and the only thing that came to mind was seeing Sandy alone not being attacked. I ran as fast as I could and saved her life with out killing the dog or even striking it or even touching it for that matter.
After all this, (was told Sandy was going to be ok by the vet hospital), how did I sleep so well? Lol I slept hard and actually felt pretty good this morning.
Once again Sandy IS stable, she is in recovery, and will come home in the next day or two.
Thank you all so much for the prayers, Sandy is an amazing family dog. She is sweet and come to chill and hang out with me for a few minutes a day. She always knows when it's time to smoke cause she will come up and sit in my room, and granny (mother in law) will follow her shortly after lol.
