Andy after surgery...attacked by a pit bull...deep punctures...drain holes now till next week

"this pit bull comes flying over the wall and goes after Annabelle first because she was still down there and I grabbed the pit bull and threw her off of Annabel and then she grabbed Andy by the neck and put a hole in his scruff and then grabbed him by the ear - I had a fight with the pit bull to let go of Andy and then she finally did and we took off running.

Two days later Andy's scruff was all puss-ie and draining blood and stinky - so took him to the vet and when they shaved his hair down it was all infected. So they opened him up and cleaned it out and put a drain tube in. He's doing good now! We go back next week so they can remove the drain tube. Annabelle was also treated for a minor injury. Both are doing a lot better now!"
