poor maudie.
i hope she feels better soon.
i can understand you both being very shaken by the experience. barkley has had a few scuffles with other over-excited or agressive dogs but we've only had one really serious incident, when he was about 7 months old. a collie x type just came from nowhere, with no owners in sight, and went straight for barkers. he sustained a couple of bites on his shoulders before us screaming and shouting at the dog got it to go away. it then came back for another go but we managed to intimidate it enough to give us time to get away. it really shook me up.
after the initial shock, barkley seemed to be fine but we took it really easy for a few days and tried to avoid other dogs just for a little while, to give him some space. luckily, there were two gorgeous, gentle springer spaniels on the campsite where we were staying and two days later he was following them about quite happily.
