I need help please..... dog attack ...update: She didn't make it!

I am totally stressing right now, and I really don't need any negative feedback, so please if you don't have anything postive to say then just don't say it. I know what has happened here is partially my faullt, I don't need anybody pointing fingers!!


I have 2 silkie x silver spangled hamburg chicks. Well I had let them out today so that they good eat, scratch and spread there wings. I have been letting them out the last couple of day's with no problem's. So all was fine I was coming and going all day today. I left and went to the bus stop, came home and my son said "mama, Sassy has a chick in her mouth" I go running into the back yard and I can't find them.... she had ran behind the rabbit cage and was still eating this chick Keep in mind that sassy is old and that she is hard of hearing now, so no matter how hard I screamed she didn't hear me. I got sassy, and put her away and my son grabbed the chick. Well, she didn't kill her. She had started eating her at her "knee" on her right leg I know that the leg is shattered..... What do I need to do? do I amputate? Is there any chance that she can live with just one leg. I have put her inside and cleaned the wound up and put antibotic ointment on it. I am started anitbotics in her water now. I also tried to make some sort of sling with an old pair of panty hose. I am so upset right now. Please any advice will be appreciated.




Edited because some people like to blow stuff out of preportion.

 

Thanks everybody....

She is actually about 9 weeks old. She acting fine. I know she has to be in pain, but other wise she is doing ok. I do have her leg splinted, sort of. I took an old pair of panty hose and put it around her and the leg where it would keep the leg up against her body and she can sit normally. The only other injury I have found is the skin on her belly is ripped, but not to bad. I can handle that. It is the leg that is upseting me so bad. I know it is broken, no doubt..... it fills like sandpaper when you move it, so I can only assume that is bone. I don't mind having a 1 legged chicken. I will love her just the same. I have named her "sweetpea".

Cobrien...... I know it is her instinct. I blame myself more than I do her. I am just upset.... I still love her though.

 

I thought I ask you to keep your negative comments to your self....


I said that she is hard of hearing.... Not deaf. She can still hear. When she wants to. If I ask her if she is hungry, she goes straight to her bowl....If I ask her if she needs to go potty, she goes to the door.... She can still hear. She is by no means "helpless" .
Sassy is in the house and she will be fed and takin care of, Like I alway's
do. I take very good care of my animals. I do not beat my animals. I did however punish her for doing wrong. I know it may be her instinct, but she has to know that what she done was wrong.

What reason do you or any one else have for calling the ASPCA?? My animals are not neglacted or mistreated in anyway. They have food, water and shelter....so go ahead and call. I will greet them at the door with a smile!
