    Re: Dog bit wild garter

    also im noticing her bottom half, second half, um from her middle point down to her tail, appears to be not moving like her top half. She seems to be dragging it somewhat and gets getting stuck when trying to navigate round the enclosure. Im so worried she is dieing on me.I have had to help her untangle 3 times now, she gets stuck, and rolls and cant get undone on her own it seems.

    pic 15 shows the normal scales before the bite wound, and pic 16 shows the ones past the wound where she doesnt seem to be able to move. They dont look normal, almost dehydrated, yet she drinks, and the front scales all look great.

    Looks like a crushing injury with spinal cord damage.

    Re: Dog bit wild garter

    Last night she was doing so good, standing right up reaching for the top of the tank, and zooming all over, swimming, and now today she isnt doing well at all. past the two bite wounds the scales look normal again. I thought for sure last night we were past the worst of it.
