Buddha Got Hurt!! My daughter who is in college came home from Santa Barbara last night with her dog, Buddha. This morning I woke up to him yelping really loudly. He came running down the hallway and my daughter was still asleep. I picked him up and he kept crying. I put him down on the bed and he wouldn't stand on his left hind leg. My son said he heard a door slam and then Buddha started yelping. The guest bedroom has a door to the outside and the door was open with just the screen closed and we think this created a vacuum and slammed the main interior door to the bedroom as Buddha was going through. He is at the vet's office now getting x-rays. They said we had to leave him for a couple of hours because they would give him a pain med to make it easier to xray and then the xrays take time so they are supposed to call us soon and let us know what the diagnosis is and when we can pick him up. I have always been so terrified of the self closing doors like the one to the garage and I have trained my whole family to see where the dogs are before they close any door but, I am so sad that, even with all the precaution and worry and prevention this still happened. I am only glad that it was his leg (that sounds bad I know) and not his head or something more serious, I have heard horror stories about yorkies and door accidents and now it's happened to me. I will let you know more when we get the call from the vet. |
I am so sorry that happened to Buddha. Hopefully the x-rays will come back okay and its only a bruise. My dogs have narrowly escaped being shut in our doors so I know how easily it can happen. Good luck. |
poor Buddah..I hope he will be OK! :( |
Budda Any news about your baby? |
Poor Buddha!!!! :( :( I hope everything is ok!!! Luig sends lots of :wub: :wub: :wub: |
We hope he is ok! Hallie and SImon send lots of puppy love! Poor little guy |
I hope buddha\'s OK! Keeps us all posted. |
He\'s okay! I\'m happy and relieved to say that Buddha has no broken bones. I am $350 poorer but I have the peace of mind knowing that he just has a badly bruised leg, but he will recover and be fine! He was all loopy from the pain meds when we picked him up, but he is napping now. I am so relieved and we learned a good lesson about the guest room door. It just always has to stay shut. I stopped by the pet supply store in Del Mar and picked up a carseat for my daughter\'s car, 2 life jackets for the pool. I ordered a "scamper ramp" off the internet so that if they accidently fall in the pool know one notices they can get out, but it hasn\'t arrived yet. These were all safety things I hadn\'t taken care of yet. I feel better now. Thank you everyone for your concern. |
So glad to hear all is well. |
I am so glad to hear that Buddha is okay. I\'m with you when it comes to having peace of mind. I cannot stand thinking one of the babies is hurt. I am happy that Buddha has no more than a boo-boo... |
dianne could you tell me what a scamper ramp is and lots of love and kisses to buddha |
Thank goodness he has no broken bones! :jump28ib: |
Question???????? How do you all get your babies names on their little pic? That is so darling. |
Pogo\'s Progress After Arguing With a Door After 2 weeks he has his leg wrap off and is as good as new. I feel so lucky that he is ok. It was a horrible night, so I know how you feel. |
I am so glad Buddha is ok Kim, I know how scary it is when something happens to our babies. |
