Casey
is a very special member of the family because she wandered into my parents
garage one afternoon looking like a skeleton. She was very cautious and kept her
distance at first but when offered some food she finally gave in and did eat.
Upon looking at her closer we noticed that her throat had been cut from ear to
ear and completely down to the windpipe. It had been that way for several days
because it was not even bleeding anymore. We took her to the vet and he cleaned
up the wound and told us to apply betadine to it twice a day for two weeks and
bring her back. When we took her back he began to sew up the wound a little at a
time and did this over several visits.
Today it is impossible to find the wound and she has been the best and most
loving little dog that my folks have ever had. She love to run and to be chased
around the yard and would do it for hours if we didn't give out first. She was
most likely a hunting dog that was afraid of the guns so the former owner just
cut her throat to get rid of her. It was really his loss because she is a true
lady of refinement and a real lover of humans in spite of it all.
