That is a big chunk off his tooth. The dentin is exposed (the yellowish bit) meaning it’s sensitive to touch, cold, heat etc if the nerve still has any function. Looks like the pulp is also exposed (the dark spots) which means that there is a risk of infection as there is nothing protecting the...

That is dreadful. I’m so sorry 😢 Her poor family.....

Well that sounds promising! If there was absolutely no feeling I think you’d be able to tell, even in amongst the throbbing. Definitely take some meds for the pain.

That’s looking great. How’s the feeling in your finger?

I definitely think they have nightmares. If I think Obi is having one I do what you did - stroke him gently - and it seems to bring an end to the unhappy sounds.

I’m so sorry about the loss of your beautiful friends and family members, Alice and Christie. With you they had everything single thing a dog and horse could ever wish for in life. They’ll always be with you.

Hmm, I wonder what I had when I had mine out.... Whatever it was it was fricken great 😁

Clever boy!!! That’s awesome!!

Oh fark Swampy! And how old were you, pray tell?

I know 😄 Was just having a little in-bad-taste kind of joke 🤭😄

Emily_Babbelhund definitely the current leader in the “Finger Injuries I Have Sustained” stakes....

Also make sure your tetanus is up to date.

Just to again emphasise the need to keep it clean. The risk is of bone infection. Get yourself on antibiotics if it’s not looking or smelling ok.

Oh lord, much sympathy. I have exactly the same injury with the same cause...trying in a hurry to wrestle a pigs ear from a Labrador (so we could get an official photo at our dog club...without the pigs ear). My right ring finger went to his back molars and in an instant got sliced halfway...

How kind. Glad she had a little woof :) Deliveries are worth woofing about, especially when they’re for you!

Awesome!

Good to hear how she’s going! Lots of people want to know :)
