Well, as I'm sure some of you heard already, Kodi escaped from his kennel AGAIN, and this time managed to jump our fence and take off into the night. When Nick and I got home from dinner, he was gone. We went out searching on foot and in the car with no luck. Both of our parents came up to help us look for him.
While Nick was out driving, he came across some people pulled over on the side of the road running right behind our edition. Upon stopping to talk to them, he found out that they had hit Kodi and he had taken off running. By some stroke of luck, he managed to limp back home where I was waiting in case he showed up.
We rushed him to the vet where, thankfully, they told us he had no internal injuries. He did dislocate one of his legs, while the other one had several deep cuts requiring staples. There were also had lots of scrapes/bruises on most of his lower half. He ended up staying at the vet for 2 nights.
We were able to bring him home yesterday afternoon. He's still in quite a bit of pain, but he has started eating and drinking. He's also managing to hobble out back to potty on only 3 legs, as he still doesn't want to put weight on the dislocated leg. He has been quite a trooper. Here are some pics of his battle wounds, as well as one of him bonding with Dad.
