When Dogs Clash & Screw Up Your Day (or week for that matter)

My week has been crazy. Literally.

Besides the normal everyday stuff (you know . . . work, the offspring, the offspring's horse, the offspring's swimming, and, uh, life) THIS made my week. In a bad way.

What happens when a 30lb Heinz 57 puppy collides with a 5lb 10 year old Pomeranian:

There I was, ready to go pick up the offspring from swimming on Wednesday and take her to the swimming dinner . . . when I hear the terrible screech from my baby in the yard! I look out and the offspring's mutt is attacking, er, playing with my baby. But somethings wrong! Bacca has his little paw in the air. I rush out and bend over him. His paw is gushing with blood! (I. Hate. Blood.) Frantic phone call to the vet. Frantic phone call to the hubs (who dared put me on hold!). Frantic dashing in the house. Apply pressure. STOP the bleeding somehow and not loose a finger (Bacca bites, peeps. Even good dogs have tempers.)

And *sigh* a dewclaw mishap and one little red cast later. My baby.

Thank goodness today is the day before SPRING BREAK!!!!!! Time for a rest (so I'll be gone next week, peeps!).

Enjoy the weather and the time off if you've got some!

Sorry your dog got hurt! Least you didn't get injured in the process. I tried to break up my dogs' scuffle when I was a kid and got a severe bite to the knee for my efforts.
Hope your spring break is much better!

I feel terrible for your little darling puppy, but you did a wonderful job of re-creating your frantic emotions in this post. :)
