I caught my Shih tzu Izzy chewing on this this morning.
It's nearly fully fledged...has almost all it's plumage. Izzy ripped it's flight feathers out of one wing, so I know I can't let it go and expect it to live. It's a little shocky...but not too bad given what it went through. No other visible injury. It has a slight crossbeak, but IDK if the dog did that or it was born that way.
A friend said to make cat food mash and offer that. Thoughts? I've never saved a bird the dogs got before, but they've always been more damaged than this one.
