My Doodle got hurt :(

[Susan]

Went on a great 3 mile walk/run with my Cubby today and was pulling the cockleburrs out of his coat afterwards.  Now, I have done this so many times, he always seems to be covered in them.  But he had a group of them burrowed into his leg and I thought I could snip it out quick.  I cut him!  It was horrible, he acted like he didn't even feel it.  Just sat there chewing his bone while I tried to stop the bleeding.  When I realized how deep it was- right where the paw bends, I rushed him to the hospital - four staples and a bandage cast later he is happily sleeping in his kennel and I am feeling ROTTEN!  He was such a great doodle, didn't flinch, didn't bark or nip, just sat there and acted like he deserved all the attention from the vet and nurses- which of course he did!

What a brave e one Cubby is! Hope he heals fast!

[Lonnie & Libby Lu]

Hugs and love to Cubby and his Mommy!  Do not feel rotten, things happen and he knows you love him so very much!

[Sue, Murphy and Bella ()*o*()]

What a great patient! My Murphy would have jumped on the ceiling, while whining and spewing blood all over the place and licking and trying to hide from me while I chase him around with bandages. How do I know this.....because its happened a few times when I've clipped his nail too short, or when he pulled his dew claw out. He acts like he's just been shot and monsters are chasing him. He is the biggest baby I've ever met. We call him the Drama King! I think he's like those people who freak out when they see blood, especially their own. So nice for you that Cubby didn't do what Murphy does, cuz it makes the guilt even worse!

[Cheryl and Finnegan]

You were only trying to help him and it was an accident.  Thank goodness he's fine and absolutely adorable.  Hope he heals quickly.

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

I'm so happy that Cubby is fine now and what a good and brave boy he is.

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

This has happened with my other dog. DH was trimming him and cut the skin where the leg connects to the body, growled and actually nipped and DH....who then was ticked until he saw the blood, he felt like a heal.

I had to trim Daisy's collar out of Bella's matted ear Sunday and nipped her (oh this poor things ears)...she also bled and I felt really bad. Now I get what you all talk about with collars and them getting caught. :-(

I am glad Cubby is ok.

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Sounds like Cubby is a real trooper.

I was trimming Haley's feet the other day and snipped MY finger!  Better me than Haley though.

[Cheryl and Finnegan]

Hope Cubby's doing better today!  You too!  Hugs and wags! (Finnegan wants to know if he can sign Cubby's bandage ;)

[Barbara B., Sasha & Oliver]

Awww poor baby :{   Yeah, I would feel pretty bad too, but it was a accident and I am sure Cubby forgives you.  I hope he feels better soon !

[Elizabeth, Bailey & Bruin]

Kisses to Cubby and hugs to you...

[Marnie, Stanlee's Mom]

I'll have some ice cream, too if it helps you feel better.  Hugs to you and doodle kisses to the Cubster!

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

I am so sorry this happened. Thanks for the reminder to be really careful when  we trim up our doods.
