We had some major excitement around here 2 nights ago. Pop was getting ready to take us for a walk and we decided that Lena could go with us. Pop put her in the arm sling and we started off and got 2 houses down when Lina got excited and decided that she wanted join Buddy and Me.
There was only 1 problem. She was about 4’ in the air and she decided that she could fly. She tried to jump out of the sling and pop tried to stop her but she got away and took a nasty fall onto the concrete sidewalk. It scared the crap out of us; she was really hurt and crying like no ones business. Pop ran her to the house, he dropped the leashes we were on and we followed him back to the house. Mom took Lena and she (Lena) stopped crying. I was so scared, I ran upstairs and started crying also. Buddy was so concerned that he just sat there with his big eyes just staring at Lina.
After a little bit of time, maybe 30 minutes, human time( now I hear that if you multiply that by 7 which equals dog time,you can imagine how long that was to us) it looked like there were no serious injuries and pop took her and placed her on the floor because he wanted to see if she was walking straight. She was. Buddy was now walking next to her and was very gentle as he was concerned. Then I didn’t think I would see this happen but Buddy shared his chicken strip with Lena. We then went out to the back and now Buddy was playing with Lena and that was the first time that had happened. I finally came downstairs ( I was watching thru the railings) and went outside and we all started playing thankful that our new little sister, of which we were so jealous of just a few moments before had actually survived that nasty fall.
Now as you can see in the picture, both Buddy and I have accepted her and we are all one happy family as we lay on the bed together. We are glad that we have a sister; she is really getting to be fun to play with.
Sometimes it takes a near tragedy to pull people together and I guess that we are not all that different. We have feelings too.
Talk to you all Later
