Yes, Bear is usually very 'dainty', he will not even push a kitchen chair aside to get to a favorite toy. But, he was not paying attention. Accidents happen, that is why they are called accidents and not 'on purposes' as Judge Judy says. So, even not playing, not being aggressive, not doing anything except 'being', it can happen, it's just a difference in size and weight issue. Not long ago there was a posting on here where an owner sat on her own dog and injured it, wasn't there? She certainly wasn't being aggressive or playing. Just can't ever ever leave them alone together, so when the accident does happen you can handle the aftermath i.e. ER vet, as quickly as possible. JMHO, YMMV.
