I have a feeling I know how he’s doing it (this is his second scraped lip). Our neighbors, on occasion, let their dog run free. He runs up to the outside of our wooden fence and races back and forth. Nina and Buddy just about kill themselves running back and forth with him. Buddy puts his face very close to the fence to keep an eye on the interloper, and I think he scrapes it when he bolts to run with the neighbor dog.
You can’t see it from this angle, but it actually extends up and sideways under his right nostril. It looks like it hurts…

Can’t “like” an owie, but like the photo.
. . . the solution, of course, is to take the fence down.

Poor baby! He’s such a cutie. I hope the owie gets better soon.

It would if he’d quit being such a spazz about the neighbor’s dog.

I hope it doesn’t hurt. The photo is very good, seems he doesn’t mind…

Nah, he’s a pretty easy going guy. He scraped it up even worse last night when the neighbor’s dog got loose again. Needless to say, I’m really getting irritated at them.

Oh no Buddy! My two also run up and down our fence like nutcases when other dogs walk by.
