Yesterday poor Rogue got bitten badly on the inside of her right leg by another dog who rogue knows well. We brought her to the vets straight away and she had to be sedated so they could flush and stitch the wound, they also had to put a drain in. Rogue do not do well under anaesthetic and it took her a while to come round as she's allergic to most medications. We brought her home last night and she cried all night(she sounds like a baby when there starting to cry and sob, its heartbreaking to hear her). She is eating normally but will not drink, the only way she will drink is if I put tuna in her water (had nothing else to put in her water last night to get her to drink). I brought her to the vets again this morning because I was very worried about her, basically the vet said the wound looks fine and she had no temperature and that its because of the incident that she's upset ad crying. I'm convinced that there might be something the vet is missing, I'm home today with her and she's still crying and refuses to drink water but she will drink when I mix the tuna in it. I'm going to the vets again tomorrow morning to get her drain removed and hopefully there's a different vet on duty so I can get a second opinion. I'm just wondering does this sound like normal behaviour after a dogs being attacked, am I overreacting?
