Hit by a truck. Part two. Animal Accident Emergency

Oh my poor little Daisy. She ran under a truck.
I had to race her to Animal Emergency for shock treatment.

This is day two in hospital. We've come for a visit.
This was a very tearful event, believe me. Oh, my poor little girl.

Head shaved. Patches and scratches.

Oxygen tube up the nose. She didn't like that apparently.
Very sad.

Don't be sad my little girl. We'll have you home soon.

Thank you to Tammy and all the girls at Animal Emergency.
Thank you for saving my little girl.

Hit by a truck. Part one. Animal Accident Emergency

Sigh, if it's not one thing, it's another.

Poor Daisy has only just mended from her last little operation.
I was doing a bit of gardening out the front with the doggies under my feet.
I was just thinking that I hadn't seen Daisy for 30 seconds when I heard car tires screeching.
She wandered out onto the road and went under a car. It must have been a high 4 Wheel Drive, for I just saw her come rolling out from underneath, yelping and crying.

I picked her up in my arms and raced her straight to the 24 hour Animal Accident Emergency centre at Essendon Airport.

End result. Badly bruised ribs. Badly bruised legs.

Lots of cuts and grazes.

Bit through her tongue. Ouch.

A bad knock on her head. Bad shock. But alive.

My poor girl.
I would like to extend a big thank you to all the girls at Animal Emergency. You were all wonderful. You looked after my little girl and you were very kind to me.
Thank you.
This is the first time I have been top Animal Emergency, and I was very impressed.

Poor little bucket head, part 5.

These are the last of the pics from when Daisy had some lumps removed from her chin, and had to wear this bucket on her head.

Are you OK there Daisy Mae ?

*wink* "I'm fine thanks Dad."

You're such a brave girl.

Only one more day and the stitches come out.
Then we can take that bucket off your head.

"That will be good, Dad. Then I can eat again."

Poor little bucket head girl - thanks Jess. Video.

Here we go with one last post to thank all the staff at the Fitzroy Vet for looking after Daisy.
Jess removed some nasty lumps from Daisy's chin, and has done a wonderful job of it.

Poor little bucket head girl - thanks Jess.

Monty and Daisy and I have just come back from the Fitzroy Veterinary Clinic.
We have just had Daisy's stitches removed.
It's amazing just how quickly and how well it has healed up.

Mind you, look how she's sitting - right on top of Monty.
Daisy ! Move your bum and give Monty some space !

Here we go, have a look at this. All healed up.
Now I just have to wait for her lovely beard and mustache to grow back.

Thank you Jess, and all the girls at the Fitzroy Vet.
You've been so good to Daisy and Monty.

Poor little bucket head, part 4 - video.

I had to take another video of my poor little Daisy Mae with her bucket on her head.
She's been so brave.
She doesn't complain or cry.


That's all for today.

Poor Daisy has a bucket on her head because she had some lumps cut off her cheek.
I know it's cruel, but it's hard not to laugh at her.

I had to take this video just so that you could see how her bucket keeps catching on the ground.



Poor little thing. Her bucket keeps catching on the ground and then flicking up.
