[QUOTE="Trip McNeely, post: 437872, member: 728"] Update: she’s been slowly letting us take out a few more. There cant be more than a few left in her one paw. It looks like it’s swelling a bit now. I made an appointment with the vet tomorrow to get antibiotics and she’ll take a look at it. She needed her shots updated soon anyhow. I don’t blame the porcupine at all nor the dog. I don’t think the dog knew the porcupine was there and accidentally hopped on it as she was crashing through a very small patch of buck brush. Had she smelled it and was curious or knew it was there her nose and face woulda been covered and she had none above the neckline. Her paws took the brunt of it. She’s a sweetheart of a dog and this ordeal definitely knocked the wind out of her sails. She doesn’t even wanna get up now. Been an awesome dog so far with the very little amount of time Ive been able to work with her. Soft mouthed, stays close, doesn’t break off conmand, really birdy, flushes well and retrieves like she’s been doing it for years……she doesn’t hesitate to crash through the cattails or buck brush either……..realistically porcupines arent good for much and after this experience I’ll save someone else the trouble and pop every one I see moving forward.
