Dropped Hercules on his back!!!!!!

[Ringo1]

Glad the DramaKing is feeling better! My Lucy is the DramaQueen! She's only two years old and has seen an ER vet 3 times! Yikes.

My Westie ~ never!

So guess which one is high maintenance?

But she's my little lovebug and I'm sure Hercules is yours too.

[Mom to Hot Rod]

Hi and welcome to YT. Glad to hear that Hercules is doing better.

I had a similar experience where Hot Rod I dropped Hot Rod. I was getting up from a seated position when Hot Rod turned over and started to jump out of my arms and I couldn't catch him and he wound up falling from about 3' or so. He landed on his back and I heard the most awful sound of his head hitting the tile floor. He made the most awful moaning sounds. I was in such a panic, I barely managed to dial the vet and explain to them what had happened. Thankfully, the calm person on the other end got thru to me and was able to get me back to a state where I could focus.

Thankfully Hot Rod got up and was seemingly fine. All in all, they had me keep an eye on him and said that if anything out of the ordinary, to bring him in right away. Thank goodness he was okay. He had gotten the wind knocked out of him and once he was able to stand and catch his breath he was okay. I, on the other hand, was a basket case.

These little boogers can wiggle like nothing and it only takes a second. Glad that all worked out good for you guys.

Thanks evevryone,

yesterday he was a bit sore late in the day as i presume the pain killer wore off but we didnt have to give him anymore and now hes himself yet again.

In other news, He came potty trained and would go to the door and wait when he wanted to go out, I was imporessed because i litterally didnt have to do anything to get him to this point.

I wanted to go to the next level thoug, and the door he goes to is not in my site when im in the living room. So i hung a bell in a ball from the door knob and when I opened the door i rung the bell,

I did it 2 times and then the next time he went over to the door he rung the bell!!!

WOw these guys are sharp.
