poor poor Sandy!

Well we have a story even better then Zeba's!!!!! Sandy was outside all alone (BTW i was at my team party and wasn't home:(() and my mom and sisters were at home. They heard the sound of coyotes yelling up a storm like they always do. then the next thing my mom knew was they heard sandy screaming bloody murder. Well he had a good reason to scream. a big Coyote was pinning sandy to the ground OUTside of our fence!!!!! we can not decide how he got out!!!! I think the Coyote dragged him under the fence and it makes since...See he is hurting on the right side back leg and the two puncture wounds are on his left side....sooooo i think he gripped him from the left and drug him to were he pinned him down and was trying to get a better grip to shake....that is when my mom found him. She yelled at the coyote and he didn't leave till she was about 10 to 15 feet away. That's when she grabbed sandy and pushed the coyote off of him. Or the back end of him since he was running to leave. And Sandy got right back up and tried to go back after the coyote. But my mom took him and got him into the bath tub and gave him a bath. Because it looks like the battle was actually rolling around for a while!!! my mom said he looked disgusting. And smelled bad...he let go of his analglans (usually happens when something grabs you and tries to eat you!). So when i got home i saw him in his crate shaking and licking his wounds. He was in shock (or at least that is what we though) and he wasn't responding to my voice which scared me. Usually he looks at me and gives me these eyes that are ADORABLE!!! LOL! But he didn't and so after i sat there for a while i opened his crate (with one arm keeping Zeba back because she wanted all the attention!) and i touched him. He was cold and tired looking. I went in the kitchen and got him some cheese (HE LOVES CHEESE, doesn't take after his mom there yuck hate cheese) and so i had to peel it thin like so he could eat it. Then in the morning I was thinking of taking him to the vets and when i saw him under my bed and i tried to call him out, he couldn't get out. Like i called him and he was half way out but he had to bend his back and he couldn't and started crying at me and looking at me so i called holly in to lift the bed up while i pull him out. He got out and i was examining him and found another Sore (that my mom didn't find) right on the top of his neck. Like where the collar is but it was kinda more down towards the body. So we figured out how the Coyote grabbed him! When i called my dad and told him i wanted to take him in and asked him he said we could. I convinced him by saying well we better get it now and try to stop the infection before there really is one and then we will have a bigger vet bill! (i am genus!) so we took him in and the doctor was so surprised that Sandy actually made it out alive! Poor little dude! I held him while we were waiting and he was like a little vibrating machine! he was nervous to be going in. But the doc took great care of him. and showed us how deep it was by sticking his scissors into both wounds. It was about 2 inches into his shoulder wound and about an inch. The doctor said he is lucky he didn't get his shoulder ripped off because that is what the coyote was trying to do., plus he said that the coyote has tasted his blood and probably will come back and try to get him again! so we have to watch sandy closely at night. right now he is doing okay just resting outside for the moment i check on him every couple Min's! So just pray he heals quickly and no infections!!
Love Hope
