My lovebird was snatched down from the counter today by my grandmother’s 8 year old yorkie mix that we just adopted a couple weeks ago by default after she passed away. I pulled him off her immediately and it seems like only her tail was damaged (as it was the only thing wet, no bleeding, some feather shedding). She was able to fly away and meet me to safety, where I bathed here to get the dog saliva off, checked her more thoroughly for injuries, and wrapped her up in a towel and held her to me. She was feisty before and during the bath, calm afterwards, grooming & eating now. What should I be on the look out for? She seems okay but I know birds turn quick. I called 3 vets and they all said they were busy for today and that the damage seems external.
Also, I’ve been trying really really hard with the bird and the dog. It’s not my choice to have them in the same house. I crate train him and obedience train him around her. I try to keep them separate and always monitor them, I’m so upset about this. Please don’t attack me, just offer me constructive advice.
