Don't call me scarface!

Yesterday I decided to take the Js for a walk down to the beach. On the way we saw a lovely Airedale and I thought I should go over and say hello. I sniffed her undercarriage politely but then she got slightly cross and bit me on the ear! I was quite taken aback and there was LOADS of blood. Luckily we were quite near the vet and so I was rushed straight there for stitches. So that's another scar to add to my collection. I hope it doesn't ruin my good looks.

Since then my ear has gone all sticky-uppy, but I think it's just because it's a bit sore. Want to take a look?



You can't see the wound from the front, so here's a view from behind...




What do you think? Still as handsome as ever?
Anyway, it turns out that the Airedale is called Buffy. I am rather worried because as we all know from the TV series, Buffy is a vampire slayer. Does that mean I'm a vampire and she was trying to slay me? Remember last year I had some concerns about my vet being a vampire cos he's always taking my blood (you can refresh your memory by clicking here)? I now fear the worst!

Holy Doodles Jax! That ear looks ouchy. I'm pretty sure you are not a vampire, but Buffy must have mistook you for one. You could always tell her about your vet. Maybe she'll go bite his ear too. I could also volunteer to swim across the pond and take a round out of Buffy for you.

Joe Stains said...

I have an ear injury too, I think it means we are so totally PAWESOME. I hope yours heals up soon!

Jake of Florida said...

Perhaps she was just so carried away by your good looks that she couldn't control herself.

Be careful of infections though -- a puncture was how JH got to wear his collar for ten days,

We're two guys, so we may not be the best judges -- but we think you still are handsome. Don't fret about that!!

Charlie Daniels said...

G'day Jackson

Wow Buffy sure slayed your ear! She must have been really hungry.

Cheers

Charlie

Daniella said...

I can't believe you were bitten by a Dale. How awful! If you start howling at the moon we'll know she is a vampire..oh hang on..we all howl at the moon. Hee hee.

Kirby said...

Hi Jackson,

Ouch, I'm so sorry about the chomp to your ear. On behalf of all Airedales, I apologize. We are not all like Buffy. I think your ear with its stitches and all looks pretty tough, and all the ladies love a tough guy. Work it for all you've got!

Your pal,
Kirby

Asta said...

sharkgila said...

Nasty, nasty Buffy!

You're still handsome, and just that much more macho for your scar! Take care.

Wooo,
Togo

Molly the Airedale said...

OMG, Jackson! We must apologize for her rude behavior! What was she thinking?! We hope you don't think that all of us girlie Dales are like Buffy! We hope your ear feels better today!

Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch

Amber-Mae said...

Don't ever let looks fool ya! That Buffy girl sure was very mean to bite you like that. Your ear looks really icky right now! Poor you. Hopefully it'll heal up soon.

Agatha and Archie said...

Dear Jax,Archie here,Um Agatha is on her way(she brought chips and dip with her to snack on) I uh,will not be able to come, as I ah,well I, you see I once saw Buffy the Vampire show on tv and had to take a tranquilizer so I think I will wait till the girls patch you up.....Stay strong( more to deal with the girls than the ear) Don't worry Aggie and I each have about 40000 ear bites( WFT induced) and they give you character. Love Archie

Unknown said...

Hi Jackson!

Harrison Ford has a scar and my Mommy thinks he's pretty sexy - you can be the Indiana Jones/Hans Solo of WFTs!!! And as for the one ear that stands up, well, I was that way for several months when I was a pup (my ears are supposed to both stand up) and looked like I was always about to take a right turn. One still doesn't go all the way up and you know what? It gives us character!

Your pal,

Petey

Princess Patches said...

You are still VERY handsome, Jackson! We're sorry that Aire-girl attacked you...I hope her pawrents at least paid for your vet visit! Sounds like she needs more socializing.

Aire-hugs,
Poppy, Penny & Patches

Asta Marie said...

Oh Jackson...how terrible that an airdale bit you so hard it nearly tore your ear off!!!! And one named Buffy too...I would be worried that Buffy was a VAMPIRE and not a slayer of one...polite doggies do not try to remove other doggie's ears. I see that you have a team of nurses on the way....so I am sure that you will be healed in no time...ear wounds do bleed profusley so I am sure it was traumatic for everyone involved.....get well, Jackson....

Asta Marie, WFT

Tatum Tot said...

Yikes that wasn't very nice! I wouldn't bite your ear, but I'd want to play!

Toffee said...

Jackson!

You look just as handsome as ever! Don't worry the scar you get will make you seem like a more MYSTERIOUS terrier!

woof!

Ruby Bleu said...

Oh Jax...you poor boy. I hope you are feeling better. And YES you are still most handsome.

Shame on the Buffy airegirl!!!But I don't think you have anything to worry about...unless you are sensitive to light? Are you sensitive to light???? Better keep an eye out for that!!!

Feel better!

Willow the Black Dale said...

Jackson...I ran over hear when I heard about your Vampire bite. We haven't met yet but I was very worried to say the least. I am a Black Dale and I promise I will never bite you. The bite does make you look tough!!! You are still a cutie. Hmmmm I have never met a biting Dale.

Body wags,
Willow

William Tell said...

So some girl dogs don't like their undercarriage sniffed? Good to know, I need to write this down. Girls are so hard to understand sometimes. We need a manual.

Hope your ear heals back good as new.

Happy Tails,
William Tell

jaffeboy said...

That was on nasty B**ch you met. What's her problem?!

I hope it'll heal up real soon. I got bitten on the ear too & a piece of it came off. My blood stained a good part of Pa's white T-shirt. It was nasty. Had to be bandage around my head! grrrr...

U rest up ok buddy.

Kaylie wants to tell you not to worry about your looks cos it's hard to take your good look away!

I'm happy to hear you were close to a vet to get stitched up. That must have been a scary experience! You are still handsome, but I'll bet you'll keep your nose out of private parts from now on.

erin said...

Wow! That looks pretty bad, Jackson. I know you're really tough but still, that must have hurt! I hope you're starting to feel better now.

Jackson

We have just returned form our holiday. We are most upset to read about your meeting with such a naughty Airedale. I, Molly, would never ever do such a thing.
We do hope your ear heals very quickly.

Molly and Taffy

Lenny said...

Jackson!! I can't believe she bit you. Did she try and tear your ear off? I hope you feel better really soon.

Hey, when I met A+A their PL2 said that she thought that you and I definitely look alike! Maybe you should start a "Handsome Wires" club too! :)

Your friend, Lenny

MISS PEACH ~(^.^)~ said...

BTW I sure do love my Stringer!
Love from your pal Miss Peach
