So a week ago Jerry come back with Tom after their owner had taken them home. Jerry was wearing a metal collar.

Tom stayed but Jerry disappeared again. Last night when Mustafa got back from playing football, Jerry had returned but in some distress. The metal collar was digging into his neck.

We managed to cut the chain and gently remove it but he was not a happy dog. He just crawled under the chair in our entrance hall. After treating the wound and leaving some food and water, he was allowed to spend the night there.

This morning he had eaten the food but still perfered being under the chair. Topped the water up and left some breakfast. Treating the wound again.

We left the front door open and about mid morning he was happy to go out. This evening he is with his best friend Tom.

We will keep treating the wound and hopefully it heals without a trip the Vet’s.
