Last night was horrible.
I took Poppy out for a walk last night, at one point I went to switch her leash from my left hand to my right hand.
At that very second when I was switching and didnt have tight ahold she pulled and I lost my grip on her leash.
I tried to grab it and shouted for her to stop but she started running, I was terrified and I couldnt catch her! I thought I had lost her!
The leash was trailing along the path behind her and I jumped to put my foot on the leash to try and stop her, it must have pulled her back and she yelped.
She went near my feet and as I was running I tripped over her and she yelped again.
I was terrified!
I was on the floor too by this stage, I grabbed her and tried to check her out.
Because of the dark there was shadows on her face and it looked like her face was covered in blood, I nearly fainted!!
I ran home with her but luckily she was okay and there was no blood.
But heres the strange thing... she smelled of poop.
I thought she must have gotten such a fright when I tripped over her she messed herself, but I checked her and she was clean.
But the smell was so strong! I gave her a bath to make sure but there was nothing on her.
I dont know what happend, I know its weird but do you think its possible she got a fright and pumped?
Im just so glad shes okay and I caught her, I feel ill just thinking about it.
She could have been hit by a car or anything! I was so scared.
Needless to say I will be making sure I have a FIRM GRIP on the leash before I switch hands next time.
