The weekend went to the dogs

September 13, 2010 filed under family | 11 Comments

Bradley did not have a good weekend.  First we had the dog attack on Friday, then he spent ages on Saturday mulling over attack (based on the number of questions I got asked about it) and then yesterday was the cherry on top.

We took the dogs for a walk in the park.  It’s a dog friendly park where most of the dogs are off-lead.  In general, the dogs are always relatively well behaved but they are all curious and go up to other dogs all the time to play.  My dogs went absolutely wild yesterday and didn’t listen at all… so much so, that one of the other dog walkers kicked Kitara to get her away from her dog.  Hmph! Apparently her dog has social issues… hmph wonder how she feels knowing that she kicked a dog of someone she actually knows and has to face at work today… but anyhoo!

So I was getting the leads back on the dogs after the incident, and I hear Bradley scream. A little overweight sausage dog (whose owner called stupid afterwards) ran up to Bradley who was running after me, and nipped him on the ankle!!

Oy!!

It wasn’t a good dog weekend for us.

Then we get home, and within an hour he has a raging fever!! His fever hit 38.5 very quickly… but thankfully we managed to get it under control.  So it’s back to the doctor today with a very sad boy, who wanted to go to school today to tell his teacher about his dog weekend.

    Sheesh! Poor guy. The first attack was bad enough and to then have this overweight Dachshund nip him … Hope he feels better soon.

    shame man, that was the LAST thing he needed after the rottie incident.

    as for the lady that kicked your dog, i’d have marched up and kicked her back! how RUDE! if her dog has social issues, she should deal with those elsewhere, not at a park where she knows dogs will be off lead!

    Poor little man. Oi, if you know your dog has social issues you do not take it to a park where dogs are of leash. Stupid woman.

    Oh my .. never a dull moment :( Stupid woman, shouldn’t be there with her dog! Elaine didn’t mention all this when she came home

  • Kathy
