My neighbours dog who managed to get out of the grden was hit by a speeding car earlier this evening. I'm a 1st year Animal behaaviour student and im really worried about the little guy.
He was a jack russell terrier, he got hit by a car doing bout 35mph. He ran about 30 ft from where it happened and collapsed. I had to lay him on a towell and had 3 of us lift him and keep his back as straight as possible. Then lay him in the car, kept his head covered so it would calm him, then grabbed a hot water bottle so he would stay warm to the vets. There was nothing else i could do really... he wasnt bleeding so i didnt have to worry about haemorrhages. He had a little blood coming from the mouth but i couldn't tell if it was internal bleeding or if he had just bit his tounge from the car hitting him....basically i just treated him for shock as best i could whilst trying to be as quick as possible.
His body remained fairly stiff and he wasn't trying to get up which probably means he cannot feel his body...as most animals will try to look aat the area where the pain is coming from.
his breathing was fairly normal a short gasp 10 seconds apart. His eyes were slightly active (looking around a little) but not glazed or anything...
any professionals have any idea what his chances are? |
r u serious? hot water bottle?
same thing happened to my pooch. i think he was turned into dog food.
