I thought not too much about it until his last 10 feet of sprinting when I realized that he was not coming out just to say hello.

He frigging grabbed Opie in a flash and proceeded to try to kill him. I got down on my knees and started to pound the crap out of him, with Mrs. Dr, onzedge kicking the crap out of him. The owner was right behind and started whaling on him to, all the while Opie is screaming at the top of his lungs.

We got him off and took him home where my wife administered first aid to Opie and me. Opie then went to the vet for stiches, x-ray and an overnight stay. He has some nice puncture wounds and a few broken teeth with a fractured jaw. I have some nice bites on my left hand and serious road rash on my knees. I think Opie will be all right, but Jeesh, it happened in a flash.

The owner was simply walking his dog from the back of his house to the front door and feels terrible and is paying all of the bills.

No more walking without one of my Glocks, I swear.

Anyway, hug your dogs today.
Craziness! So sorry to hear, and hope everyone is ok.

I have a miniature schnauzer who was the runt of the litter, and I try to be very aware of that potential situation. She acts like she could take on the world but talk about some long odds...

My golden retriever (disclaimer: she was part Chow we think) growing up was the nicest dog you ever met. Babies hit her in the face, 2 yr olds pulled her tail and whiskers, and I never saw a happier dog around people. However, she did not get along well our other former alpha female who was 15 at the time (nor many other dogs, really). We had to put down the older dog after one of their more serious fights. They say hitting a dog on the bridge of the nose will release their jaws, but I can honestly say that was complete nonsense. I punctured three of my fingers on her teeth while literally pulling her jaws apart after several failed nose punches. Its an incredibly intense situation and, just like you said, everything happened so fast. Definitely an eye-opener in regards to the nature of animals and the respect you must have.

Speaking of dogs, one time I was visiting my friend's place, and they have a dog in their condo, so we were chatting and the dog was sitting on the floor quietly. At the end, I told my friend, "Your dog is very calm and looks cool...." while I was going up to the dog and touch his head...

All the sudden my friend and his wife started yelling/warning me "OHHH NOOOO... DON'T DO THAT!!!!!"

Meanwhile I had my hand on the dog's head, my friend rush to the dog, pick him up and rush to the toilet....

"What's going on....?" I asked the wife...

"He pees when you touch his head.... every single time....."

I looked at the floor and I saw the drips......



Real Story...

I would trade a little pee for the vet bill, stitches and tetanus shot.

It's probably just a "placebo effect" but I'm rather enjoying the drive after installing the tubes and filters. It feels more responsive and the car sounds great.

Now I'm stuck browsing for more things.

How are you all doing this evening?

I'm doing fine ... just sitting in my favorite chair by the fireplace.

I purchased a quart of Nissan Ester oil today. The level is getting near low so I need to add a bit because the wife and I are going on a road trip. I'll need the extra oil.
