Puppy accident

Oh my god. Today was Poppy puppy’s grooming day. We gave her a bath and dried her. But when it came to trimming her fur, we had a little accident. Mum was trimming her ears while I was holding her head and all of a sudden Poppy lets out a yelp. I ask mum if she had nipped her and she said yes as she rushed across the kitchen to grab some tissue. As I am there holding her head and there is blood pouring from Poppy’s ear. It wasn’t just a nip. The edge of her ear is sliced off. It’s about 1cm long and a couple of millimetres in.















We stopped the bleeding and decided to go out to see Nan and Granddad. On the way we called the vet who said it’s not an emergency if it stops bleeding. But part of her ear is hanging off, so every time she shakes her head the bleeding starts again. So the vet said to stop her shaking you have to carry her everywhere. We decided to go to the pet shop on the way. But as we got out of the car, Poppy shakes her head and the bleeding starts again. We thought we stopped it but as we were walking around the pet shop with me holding her, the blood is pouring out and onto the floor. So I go back to the car with her while mum does the shopping and I manage to get it to stop again. We decided not to go to Nan and Granddad’s because Poppy will get too excited and may open the wound again. So we just went home.


To stop her shaking her head at home we had to make something. Mum came up with the genius idea to put a sock on her head. We cut the toes off and we cut a hole for her other ear. But the sock holds down the injured ear so that if she does shake then her ear won’t move. To stop her from removing the sock we had to put her cone on. Now she looks funny but at least she doesn't keep bleeding.



In brother news, he’s aloud back in the house but only to sleep and eat. He has to keep away from me for the time being. I have now hidden my bag where nobody but me will find it. Try and steal from me now asshole.
In other news, I am talking to my ex-boyfriend again. He requested me and now we talk a lot. It’s good to know that he’s okay and it’s good to find out what he is up to. Especially after loosing Jamie. I regret not talking to Jamie even though he had requested me only months before.
