Shark tooth? Bear Claw? Dog Tooth? Those are the questions? Well the answer is dog tooth. Harley had her two front 'fang' teeth (a.k.a. Canine teeth) pulled on Wednesday morning. No her mother did not do this for cosmetic reasons, she did it because it was the cheapest way to fix the injury. On Tuesday afternoon I had to run a quick errand to the post office, so i put the dogs out back to play while I was gone which I do often. When I came home like 10 minutes later (at the max) I went to the back door to let the dogs in and they were happy as could be to see me - but they both had blood on their faces and paws! I knew this was gonna be bad so I ran across the street to get Lauren for some clean up help. As we were trying to figure out how to go about cleaning them we noticed that Harley's tooth was sticking out sideways - so i knew I had to take her to the vet. Leah came home to check out Yuma and she also had to take her in for a cut on her foot. Both dogs had to stay overnight at the vets.
Final Outcomes:
Harley: lost the fight, had two teeth pulled, has to take pain medicine and antibiotics, has to have her food mushed up, and severely bruised neck and mouth area.
Yuma: won the fight, had to get some stitches in her front leg, has some punctured wounds that had to have the fur shaved away so it will heal properly, and the ugly cone around her head

Oh no. They both look so sad! I would probably look the same way though.
nice work on the photos. I am glad they are both doing better. It is still just so bizaree.
It's so true about the cone. I think she takes up twice as much room with that thing on her. And it serves as a megaphone for her talking.
