Cone of shame

I was out walking my dog & we met this
Female Chocolate lab whom we have never met before.
Everything seemed fine & then all of a sudden
they both went for each other. Standing on their hind legs & biting each other!!!
It was scary! It was icy & I couldn't get a good foothold to pull
my dog back right away.
The other guy was pulling hard at his dog as well.
Then suddenly they separated & just looked at each other.
I saw a couple of drops of blood by Mocha's feet.
The other dog seemed fine.

I got home & tried to see what was going on & to clean it out.
There looked like a small flap of skin hanging down on his bottom lip
& it was bleeding but not too much.
I cleaned it up & left it for a while but, Mocha just wouldn't 
settle & seemed to be uncomfortable.
I phoned the vet & they said to bring him in.
Took him in & they said it was good I did because he needed stitches!

They put him out & cleaned out the wound really well & 
stitched him up. Unfortunately for him he has to wear a cone.
He's never had one before & is feeling quite sorry for himself.  : (
