My dog is plotting against me.

[blue]

Im bring Blue in from doing his business last night, as I step up on the porch he darts in front tripping me. He continues going off to the left of me, taking my right arm, which was holding the leash with him as my left foot slips on the ice. Checkmate goes to Bluedog, as I face plant into the porch and break my glasses.

The eye isnt swollen shut Im just showwing all the damage.

Wooow! That's gotta hurt...You ought to be more carefull

 

[avenlee]

Ouchie! That gotta hurt!

 

[Debi]

OMG...OUCH, OUCH, OUCH!!!!!!! I'm all too familiar with those fast, criss-cross moves.........on ice. Sounds like Blue was very eager to beat you into the house!

 

[AndrewF]

that's gotta hurt! Hope you're feeling better.

 

[smkie]

I have to ring the doorbell twice to say I am coming in with my dogs..even so I enter with Vic on a leash.Mom is 79 and doens't need any of those cross moves...so sorry for your poor ol eye...you have my sympathy!!!!!!!! Did you tell your dog."Now LOOK what you have done?"

 

[Martine]

Hope you feel better soon - and have mended your glasses!

 

[chazhound]

Now, do people say "yeah right" when you tell them the dog did it? lol

 

[gaddylovesdogs]

omigosh.....ouch. Get well soon.

Brady busted my lip by jumping into my face with his doggy knee. I really am not sure if anyone believed me, but if they met him, they would believe me in a minute. 80 pounds of pure happy energy busted my lip.

He has also tripped me going up the stairs and I thought my big toe was broken, and burnt my leg twice with his leash. I feel your pain and I hope you feel better soon.

Hello im Scarlette and im a product of pet abuse
*Hi Scarlette* lol
Yeah I definatly feel your pain I cringed when I saw the pic and so many memories came flooding back. i don't know how many times i have had an excited dog jump up at me and knock me in the face and bust my lip or leave me with a black eye. Or how many times I've been tripped or drug lol its so bad. It hard to be on the hurting end because you know that they did'nt mean to hurt you but its hard not to get upset for atleast a few seconds after the incident lol.

 

[bogolove]

LOL! I know! I had Brady and Jenny tag team me and trip me and send me hurling through the air into some mud before. Yeah they are a real funny duo.....

 

[nicco]

Don't get me started on "doggy violence" LOL!!!
You don't want to know how many times I've had my face smashed by the leash, and how often I got my lips broken by my dog's REALLY HARD head and how many times she stepped (and still is) on my foot like she was actually meaning to step on it and didn't even bother to take it off very soon LOL and so on...*ouch*

[Debi]

not to mention...times when the leash (chain) somehow ends up wrapped around my fingers.......OF COURSE they choose then to pull. yes...it IS a plot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thru it all....yeah, they sometimes feel kinda bad, but there is also sometimes that gleam in the eyes.....

 

[CreatureTeacher]

I'm also painfully familiar with the fast-dogs-on-ice disorder. But at least you got some ice on it right away... Sure hope you feel better!

 

[Renee750il]

Blue, I'm chuckling - in sympathy. And I'm incredibly thankful that I don't have to worry about trying to deal with mine on leashes when it's icy . . . Hope that shiner gets better soon! Just think of all the rainbow of colors it's going to go through in the next week or so.

 

[Blondie]

Ouch, I hope you heal soon! Blondie absolutely _loves_ to run around me when he's on the leash. Really funny for others to see... But he knows better to criss cross in front of us, he'd probably get stepped on!

 

[blue]

Thanks everybody. It didnt hurt to bad after the second morning, and its still a nice shiner. Im sure this is just the begining of mishaps with this bugger, he's about 5 months old so Im pretty sure he still has some growing to do.

I use short leashes, no more than a foot or so. That saves my back, and keeps them from doing this. The hard part is finding a short leash (this only works if your dog is tall!) i don't know what I would do with a little dog.
