Its good to hear that he came back. How badly injured is he? Hope all goes well.

Lucky you looked out the back when you did ! what was his attitude to seeing you again ?

A few twists in the body doesn't sound good.

Be careful, i had a problem where my land mullet got out and my staffy bit her on the tail. Months later her scales were raised and i thought she just had mites and treated it for mites. In the end my girl lost her tail due to a STAPH infection received from my dogs mouth. Be careful.
