Thank you to everyone who's called, emailed and responded (via Facebook and Twitter) about Kharma's condition. He's recovering from an attack by another dog at Buddy Todd Park in Oceanside, CA on 10/25/11.
The dog "Lila" was given real turkey as a treat; and then Lila turned and
attacked Kharma. Crabbed him by the neck. I crabbed the other dog's collar and made her drop Kharma. We immediate went to Pacific Animal Hospital and was seen immediately. Dr. Burnell perform surgery to clean out his wounds and stitch him up. The stitches are about 4-5 inches
across his next. Dr. Burnell says he is very, very lucky. He has two drainage tube sticking
out (they come out Friday) and goes back in two weeks to removed his staples.
Kharma's feeling a little better today. He's got lots of pain meds, is enjoying being hand fed (he ate... yeah) and went
outside for a short walk to do both of his doggy "businesses". He even wanted to bark at the dogs living next door.
His prognosis is for a good recovery. Several of people have offered financial support for his medical bills ($1100). That is greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate, you can by clicking below of the PayPal logo.
