Our best friend loves to come over and pick up our pets. That being said, he isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. A few years ago he picked up a tiny kitten we had just adopted (she was barely 2lbs at the time) and let her leap from his arms. He is 6'7 so that was way to far for her to jump from at that age and that size. Luckily she was not hurt. A week ago he came in and picked up Wallee. From my DH and my experience, we know he loves to be picked up, however when he wants down he will start wiggling. We know the signal so hold him tight and tell him to be calm while we put him down slowly. Well, wouldn't you know it, Mr Dumbass was holding Wallee and I see Wallee wiggle and jump down onto the kitchen floor he landed. I saw him land badly and it knocked the wind out of him...OMG.. I was pissed. I scooped him up to check him and thank God he was ok...DON'T LET ANYONE PICK UP YOUR DOG! |
