Bess in the wars ...


Poor Bess has been in the wars this week. On Monday we went on a very long walk, as always her enthusiasm for walking running and charging about took over and before I could stop her she jumped over a barbed wire fence!!
The upshot of this was a visit to the Vet who kept her in as she had to have a general anaesthetic so that they could sort out the wound.
When I picked her up the poor dog looked very sorry for herself and had a great big cone on her head. Bess has bumped and crashed her way round all week and yesterday the cone could last no more as it crumpled into a heap.
Chris took charge, when I wasnt in view, and mended it with a roll of Insulation tape. What a mess. This morning it broke again and its now bound in blue tape too.
Goodness knows what looks I will get when she goes back to the vet tomorrow!!!

  1. Bess looks very fetching - although I think the blue is more "her colour", rather than the yellow!

    Hope she's healing well.

    1. I think I agree, the blue is better!! Shes doing really well, taking all her tablets and not complaining. Another 9 days until the stitches are out and hopefully she will be good as new :)

  2. All we need is red now and she will be like H.M the Queen and not telling you for what political party she would vote for .Despite her injuries I am sure she will enjoyed herself on Monday. Did she pick any pheasants up or just go as a poser xx
