As the title states, my roo was attacked by my neighbor’s dog yesterday evening. When I got to him he was clearly in shock so after cleaning him up and treating the injuries, I brought him inside for the night to separate him and keep him warm. Injuries include minor punctures in his neck and...

So, we got home last night to a dog with a droopier than normal face. Did some research and found that it was probably Facial Nerve Paralysis, basically Bell’s Palsy for dogs.
