This is Irish Wolfhound Gillighan who came in to see us having caught his tail in a van door. Mum bandaged him up and brought him straight down to see us for treatment. As a show dog, everyone was keen to try and preserve his full tail so that he would remain eligible to compete.
Tail wounds can struggle to heal: not only do dog tails have limited protective tissue, but they are in constant use as part of a dog’s mode of expression, which often means lots of wagging! Gillighan’s tail didn’t heal as we had hoped so had to surgically remove the damaged tip.
The three year old is now all better, the op site has healed, his fur has grown back and, excitingly, his tail remains long enough for him to continue to show. You can imagine our delight to receive a WhatsApp message from Gillighan’s owner last week to tell us he’d won silver in his show category. What a stunning superstar!
