Not the least of which is Cooper, who tangled with a critter this morning in the barnyard. Our vet was able to save his eye, hopes the lid which she stitched and glued back on will adhere....also he has more stitches above the eye and his mouth.

It's strange that he'd spent yesterday there, getting all his yearly shots updated and getting groomed. He looked so cute in his St.Pat scarf....vet said they put a new one on him because of all the blood...I can get him this evening. ~sigh

Hopefully he learned something....we aren't sure if it was a raccoon or ground hog that got him. We are just so thankful that he's going to be ok.

Oh....I learned something! You aren't supposed to give dogs aspirin....not even the dog aspirin that they sell at the pet store.

Oh poor Cooper. I hope he will be okay.

Warm puppy hugs!

OH NO!!!!! Poor Cooper!!!! I'm glad hes going to be ok....I know this sounds silly, but i'll say a prayer for him. You know hes going to be sore after all of that!
{{{HUGS}}}

Alffe, I am so sorry !!! That's just awful - just awful. I'll pray for that precious pet too.

OH NO! Not precious Cooper!!!! Poor baby! I hope he heals fast.

Here's an old picture I have of Cooper with his pretty green scarf. Bless his little heart!

Man, I feel blessed as well and I'll try to keep the story as short as possible...right! LOL

My daughter on her way home from work last night on the interstate. She was in the passing lane, when the traffic started to slow a lot. She thought, oh god, it's probably an accident. So she flipped on her flasher lights and started braking. The semi in front of her pulled into the right lane just in time for her to see some big green thing sitting right in the passing lane.

She swerved into the right lane just missing a rocking chair! It had fallen out of a pickup and the man and his son were running down the interstate to try to get to the chair.

She watched in her rearview mirror as a red car kept going fast and careened right into the rocking chair. She started to lose control as the woman behind her crashed into the red car shoving it UNDERNEATH a semi in the right lane. The car who hit the red car spun twice and flew into the median ditch. The girl in the red car came flying right out from under the semi, went over the median across the oncoming lanes, spun and stopped!

Part of her car was still hanging from the semi. Yet, Cara watched as all of the people involved in the accident got out of their cars! Even the girl who went under the semi. She got out and was wandering around and was cut up from flying glass.

Daughter watched the whole thing in her rearview mirror!

I'm so sorry for the other people, but so overjoyed that it wasn't my daughter who had the accident. So, I feel very blessed.

Oh Doody!!! Cara had an angel riding shotgun....what an awful thing to witness..and it's amazing that everyone was able to get out of their cars!! (((Cara)))

Thank you for posting our Cooper....thats how cute he looked yesterday when I picked him up from getting groomed. Not today, ~sigh...he is hurting..swollen eye, shaved, and lots of stitches but he still looks wonderful to me.
