Wounded... again.

Well, I went to pick up Max from daycare on Friday evening and low and behold he got hurt once again. This dog is so accident prone - we seriously thank God every day for pet insurance!!! We have saved thousands! Basically they aren't sure what happened at daycare. Max came over to one of the day care girls and she looked down and noticed Max was bleeding. It was fresh, so it had just happened. They didn't hear a bark or a yelp or anything - so no dog fight this time. They think he may have rubbed up against a sharp edge of the fence or maybe another dog scratched him. He didn't even realize it. Never cried, nothing. They glued it up for me and I went ahead and took him to the vet just to be safe - he had to get stitches. So, here are some fun graphic pictures for you (taken with my phone so they are not great).

Still a bit drugged on the tranquilizer (above). He was stumbling all over the place completely drunk. Very hard not to crack up at a drunk dog that big. Had to keep him from falling over several times b/c he would stand there and stare into space, then fall asleep standing up. So I'd have to run over to him and catch him. ha!! He's 83 lbs now!!!! Anyway, he's fine...he finally laid down and slept the drug off. He doesn't even realize he's been hurt. We're keeping him home for a few days.
