*Goat attack* pics

Was able to get a couple of pics of the worse of the wounds. Gypsy the brown one got the area shaved (took 3 people to hold her) waiting for my clippers to charge and will try to shave the worse one on Sugarbaby. The vet said they are all healing up nice, and no sign of infection. Warning Sugar's looks bad but it was actually just wide.

Gypsy (the yellow is the iodine )

I can't imagine coming home to that! You did a good job doctoring them up and finding a vet to help out!

Any signs of the dogs again? I hope they've been taken care of by someone else in the area - I'm sure they've been up to no good the last week.

I have to attribute what I was able to do to all you guys and the knowledge I picked from your brains. I have triage'd dogs, cats, reptiles, birds and even my human kids but I was really doubting myself with treating Sugar and Gypsy on my own. Really glad for this site and the help you all provide.
Thanks
