Hey everyone. Need some advice. Our 5year old desert tortoise was napping under our golf cart and my husband didn't see him. He ran him over but there doesn't appear to be any damage besides a pin drop of blood on the outside of his shell. He was scared directly following and hiding in his shell. He came out when my husband started talking to him and is walking around now. I guess I just want a little reassurance of someone who's had a similar situation. Or knowledge of his survival rate. I called his veterinarian and she just told me to watch for signs of difficulty breathing and of that happened to take him to the emergency vet an hour away. Please help we love him so much and my husband is beside himself.
