Been trying to tell you guys this but everytime I think about it I start
bawling all over again. Apparently, something scared Magic so badly
Wednesday nite he either ran into the brush pile or the old truck in the
pasture and got caught up. There is no blood on the truck so I don't
believe it was that. His left front leg is so ripped up you can see the
entire knee joint. Dr. said it was horrible. And it is. I was going to
get photos so as he heals we can watch the progress, but it is just too
awful. In all honesty I almost puked when I saw it in the daylight.
Oh the poor guy, that has to be so painful. Dr. flushed it all out, put on
antibiotic cream and bandaged it. He left us instuctions on how to treat
it and medications. I have never seen anything like
it and hope to never see it again.
Bruce found coyote tracks outside of the back side of the pasture so he is
suspecting coyotes scared him. Bruce has installed an additional motion
lite over that pasture and will probably be putting in more. He also met
up with a guy in the checkout line at TSC when he was buying more vet
wraps, who hunts coyotes and this man is coming out on Monday to scope out
the property and decide the best way to hunt them.
Dr says we will be surprised at how well Magic heals. Magic is up and
around, very perky, and only seems to limp a little. If it were a person,
they would be laid up miserably.
If you have any coyotes around your place, get rid of them as soon as you
can.
