Wow! These stories gave me chills. These little ones are fearless and fast and can sure get into trouble. I'm glad your stories have happy endings.

All of a sudden I heard these awful screams and I knew Chipper was in trouble. He comes running to me and I scoop him up and notice he has a huge gapping hole in his chest. I rushed him to the vets. While Chipper was running up the hill, he was impaled by a fallen cedar tree. The vet said that he took slivers of cedar out of his chest. Fortunately besides a short hospital stay, a drain and stictches he was fine. It was very scarey for his mommy. |

Apparently he cornered in the yard and the rose bush got him really good (found some of his hair on it)...trimmed that mean bush up and put mesh around the bottom on it.
I actually nailed Princess between the eyes tossing a kong to her in the yard once...be glad you only tossed it at the wall..I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, yet I really nailed her that time.She shook it off and wanted it thrown again immediately after...then again she's a mini Schnauzer-they've heads like goats LOL
Elvis went running down the hall bounced off the cabinet then off the wall I was like what the cream cheese he's gone crazy-do other Yorkies tuck their bottoms and run all spazzed out like he does?...now he crashes into the China cabinet and then the edge of the wall almost every time he goes down the hall toward my bedroom now...I think he's lost depth perception in his right eye from the pressure on his optical nerve from his seizures...had to put a gate up so now he only gets to go down the hall walking with me...decluttered a bit to make sure he doesn't crash things like removed the coffee (what the heck do you call the leather things with trays on top and seats inside-like everyone has one now) table I guess it is. Now I'm thankful for the one time accidents and a little weary of them being more than a one time emergency incident considering... |
