That there is a face bite.Did he claw you or knock you over? Ouch!
What?! Are you ok? Should you see a Doctor?That there is a face bite.
Oh ouch!That there is a face bite.

Thanks. Well, I think it will heal up. Swelling quite a bit though.What?! Are you ok? Should you see a Doctor?

Has the bleeding stopped yet?Thanks. Well, I think it will heal up. Swelling quite a bit though.

Ok, that does not look like fun! Can I assume its from trying to pick him up and place him into the tub?? I rarely bathe Buddy. I good rubbing down of a damp towel is usually sufficient. But when I do, I have hot and cold water in the garage and I can just use the hose. No picking him up, which, of course, I can't do anyway. PLUS, when we built this house I made sure our walk in shower also had a hand held shower head in addition to the regular one. Just for the dog! lol! We even added length to it to be sure I could get over, under and around a large dog.Bath time with Oji.
It took some training to get him to walk in there but now does so with ease. If you don't have all that, I would get some warm water in a bucket and do a little outside (in summer) and the rest of the time just use a damp towel.
That had to hurt.They really don't like being picked up, do they? I think if we don't get them used to being picked up, they never become ok with it. Kaiser used to get all squirmy in our arms so we never fully enforced the pick up, plus they get so big and heavy so fast. He can jump everywhere now, but I worry how we'll handle that in his older age, or God forbid, if he has a leg injury. Ugh, big dog problems!Ok, that does not look like fun!

Mine never did. Plus I can't. lol I've never had to pick them up in an emergency situation but if they were 'limp' enough for a sling, that's what I would use. Of course, it still takes two people usually.They really don't like being picked up, do they? I think if we don't get them used to being picked up, they never become ok with it.
