Molly One Ear
Molly the Mutt regularly has handbags at dawn with another dog we often meet on her morning walk. Today however, the scrap turned into a proper brawl ...... blood ever where! A trip to the vet was called for. Vet phoned a bit later to she she was all sorted & stitched up but a 'small part of her ear had to be removed.' It's actually about a third of her ear has gone ...... 
The other dog was unscathed.
She's now in her bed wearing her cone of shame 
but seems none the worse for her battle scar

Poor Molly! I can relate to that and the amount of blood - my GSD came in out of the fresh falling snow and shook - the blood hit the ceiling. Did they give her a general anaesthetic to stitch her? My main vet came in to see a young locum had put mine right out - (and was also intending to put her out to remove the stitches). Main vet didn't think he should have put her out! Coming round was a horrid process of seizure like stuff going on (I had opted to bring her home for fear of being snowed in and was warned her wake up might not be too pleasant). I removed the stitches myself.

Nasty
Here's hoping for a full recovery, I don't know what it is between dogs that sets this off.My dog is so laid back and placid but my daughters dog attacked her on their very first meeting, luckily it was all noise from her dog and yelping from Cassie, and is the only one ever come across that has this anger towards her. Luckily she lives in Cornwall so they don't meet up now.

Ours is due to have stitches out of ear tomorrow. Not a fight though, a haematoma, ear needed splitting, cleaning out stitched in places but left to drain over weeks. The cone of shame has become her latest weapon! Great for scooping up leaves, thumping into shins etc....
Hope your pooch is ok MM
