Down and Rebound

Osa the oldest shepherd taking advantage of the wood stove.

Last week our youngest shepherd cut her leg. It was a very deep and fresh cut. I triaged it and realized she needed stitches. Wrapped and blanketed we drove her to the vet. It was a cut tendon and very deep. He weighed her at 112lbs ( she was the runt of the litter). The vet gave her a sedative and we hoisted her onto the table for a quick tendon reattachment and 3 stitches over her paw. She was in the house with Osa for a week in my office. After the cold snow and ice both are now outside and loving working again. No poultry was lost during the guardian vacation.
