Lesions caused during a fight between two Pit Bulls (one male, one female). The female suffered the deepest wounds, shown in image (A,C). Obvious orifices in the skin of the mandibular region due to penetrating injuries inflicted by the other dog’s teeth (B). Lesions in the oral cavity, specifically the lower gum and lip (D). Deep lesions in the right thoracic limb that resulted from bites by the other dog. Most of these lesions required thorough washing and suturing to join the edges of the bites and prescriptions for antibiotics and analgesics.
