Last Friday my son and I came home and I let my rhino out of his cage. I did not realize that the my dog's kennel was not totally latched closed. I have to mini doxies and a chihuahua. I was in th kichen I hear barking and my son yelling they are killing the lizard. Of course I run like a maniac into the other room. I end up slipping and falling cutting open the side of my wrist. I did not notice until after I got my dogs in their kennel and Niko my rhino back in his enclosure.He was uninjured physically except a small scratch on his tail. I am pretty sure what happened is my dogs went to check niko out and he may have gotten defensive with them and they went after him. After I got back from the ER with stiches I went to check on Niko he was obviously very stressed and opened his mouth at me but did not bite. I have finally been able to put my hand in the enclosure to stroke him. He has never allowed me to lift him up Since the incident he hides up on the high shelf in his enlosure alot more in the dark. He has never eaten as much as others say theirs do but he really is not eating now. He does not look like he has lost weight and he does have normal poops. I am so worried about him he did come out the other day to roam a bit but I worry about him hiding on the shelf so much and not eating as much as usual.
