The vet and I both think it was a stab wound to the inner cheek. He is a chewer of sticks and old bones when he can sneak one. The wound is large because the abscess capsule was tough and in an awkward place because of all those important facial nerves. No nerve damage thankfully. 👍
Clancy has had an abscess. He was treated with antibiotics but needed to have it drained and removed a week later. I removed the drain yesterday but there's still 9 days until I can remove the stitches. He has been really good with the vets, the cone of shame and all his meds. I'm really proud...
A bouquet of toes. 🤪
Clancy had his nails Dremelled, his first proper bath with shower nozzle and played himself dry. Not happy about a shower but tolerated it without panic. 👍
Sorry, I'm not much help with pedigrees as both my dogs have been/are Dobe mixes. However I am going to get my current boy DNA tested if they have an Embark equivalent here. Orivet does both id testing and health testing here in Australia. Both Embark and Wisdom are available in Aus too. Welcome...

Clancy has overcome a lot of anxiety while camping. He is happy and at home with bush and river camping but gets really uncomfortable with town stops. It has taken a week for him to warm to my friends hubby as we continue the camping experience. It is obvious that he has had bad experiences with...

Clancy has been unsettled in our next stay. Many people and many dogs so he gets regular breaks in his car to decompress. First proper relax on his camp bed and I've successfully Dremelled all his nails while in his nice safe car. We take our wins where we find them!
Oh, and he had his first...
There was a camp a distance away that were partying and cracking a whip which kept the lad on alert for quite a while. He settled in the end so a perfect introduction to some noisyness. 😉
