When he came back past me he wasn't bleeding any more but had lots of blood on his chest, legs and chin with a few needles still in him but he's fine  |
Great pics!
Our lab got it in the nose by a porcupine also and like a dumbass I proceeded to pull each one out with hemostats. It was pretty fricken loud!
After all was said and done a doctor that lives next door stopped over and asked about Max and informed me that if you cut part of the quill...it releases pressure inside the quill allowing it to come out easier.
Don't quite know if that's true or not the dog never went near another one for me to test it out!
