I am not feeling so good tonight, Mum and I had been out for our evening walk to the local recreation ground, It was dark so she had to have a torch, poor soul can't see unless the light's in the sky. The walk was [in her opinion] finished so she goes back to the car, and starts bleating, come on Tango, time to go, hurry up, in the car lad , move it sunshine, get your a*** in gear if you please, I'm losing patience fast, and so on, I of course just ignore her as I am going deaf, well at least I hear her tell everyone that, so why not take advantage eh?
I decided to have a little nose in the garden above the underground garage by the flats, I don't usually go there as she won't let me, but I'm playing deaf, remember! I got right up to the wall and she shouted, get your backside down here NOW, OK, OK I thought, best move, so I went to the edge of the garden that runs alongside the garage driveway and jumped down. JEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ, my chin hit the floor so hard it knocked the breath from my body, how the h*** was I to know it was a five foot drop? I just lay there for a bit, and Mum came running over all of a tizz. And I accused her of not being able to see in the dark.
Arlene says when I saw Tango step off that wall my heart was in my mouth, he's 13 next month so no spring chicken, he could easily have broken his neck or leg at least, He tottered over to the car looking quite dazed, I checked him over when we got home but all I cold see was a skinned chin, but he obviously hurts, as he's getting up from his bed quite delicately. but my was he lucky.
If you come on here looking for some mind-blowing conversation or profound words of wisdom, well you've come to the wrong place and will be disappointed. I'm just an ordinary bod who likes to share my day with anyone who cares to listen. Tales of my dogs, my garden, my family and happenings in my life that I feel might just be amusing....If you're happy with that, draw up a chair, light up a ciggie if you wish or have a cup of tea and make yourself at home.

Me 'n' Ruby and of course Tango
Get well soon, Tango. Sam is coming around very slowly but he;s still very thin and very weak. He needs help climbing into Godzilla and can hardly balance on the truck door to ride with his head out the window.

ReplyDeletePoor Tango, must have been quite a shock for him when he realized it was that much of a drop. Hope he's alright.
ReplyDeleteBasil's going to the vet beginning of next week,I don't think he's happy anymore.
Tango pls stop coming out in sympathy with Sam! How am I supposed to get it together to post my half finshed blog for your k9 entertainment if you're leaping off walls and wolfie hs to worry about you as well as Arlene...lol...you did say she was going blind!!lol...well...can't see in the dark anyway ;) Hope you're feeling much less delicate soon!
ReplyDeleteTango, I hope you get over your sore chin quickly. Five feet is a long leap for a dog or a cat.
ReplyDeleteWhat a walk! Tango, you should ask Arlene for a doggie hearing aid.
ReplyDeleteI hope Tango feels much better tomorrow. That was quite a fall.
ReplyDeleteHi Tango,
