I just wanted to share my little adventure and big time SCARE!!
I have been up at my sisters all this past week. Well my sister has 2 labs... Well Leia, (Princess Leia) is AWESOME with Nicky, I call her the baby sitter. She is to cute with him, but I am ALWAYS watching her like a hawk when I am up there. WELL last month this other male black lab mix dog waunders into her life. Well he is easy going for the most part. He always wants to be your pal and in your back pocket. Well last Tuesday, I was there to get the kids off the bus. I had my two out front with me as they were getting off the bus, my nice takes it apon herself to run into the house, and the two big dogs come running at us, my nephew and I. Well Nicky takes this as a time to play, and he got all hoppy and was getting his lead all tangled in the big dogs legs and what not. The kids were happy to see their pooches, so they were hyping them up. Meanwhile Nicky and Rocky are in the middle of all this... I was just about to holler at them to all calm down when I hear that high pitch cry and a bunch of yips comming from Nicky. Well that was all it took for me to hear and I was yelling at the kids and dogs to calm down one of them was hurt, then Coal, the black dog growls and bears his teeth and takes a lunge at Nicky and OMG the protective mom in me kicks in and I say in the deepest , meanest voice I could say... "COAL, BACK OFF!!" I then smacked his head as hard as I could!! He backed away with stuned look on his face... Then Leia bears her teeth at Coal and she bit him and I was smack in the middle of it, I then scream at the kids to get up on the porch this NOW!!, I then scoop up Rocky I already had Nicky in my arms. he was shaking and crying, I myself was near tears. I was then so ticked that I hollerd at coal, "GET IN THAT HOUSE THIS INSTANT I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOU!!" My nephew looked at me like he was in shock. I looked down at him and told him that it wasn't him that I was angy with. He then said, "Yea I know aunt g. Coal could have killed Nicky." I was like yes he could have... Then my nephew says... LOOK AUNT G YOUR ARM IS BLEEDING" I was like what where, and he pointed, I was like thats funny it doesn't hurt. Then my nice said, "Aunt G its Nicky's nose" I was like OMG...

!! Then all these horriable thoughts were coming to me.. Like inturnal bleeding and he was going to die in my arms. I was crying at this point. But after a few moments he was fine, shaken up but doing fine. Coal was also fine with him the rest of the time too. So I am not sure what caused him to flip out... But that doesn't mean I am going to be any less causious because next time I may not be as lucky!! I love my boys to death they are my life!! My everything.. I know that may sound stupid because it is just a dog but they aren't just dogs to me, they ARE my babies. and i love them as if they were my children.
Sorry for rambling on so much.
Hugs,
