But pulling a glue trap off of the face of a Great Dane?
I can honestly say that wouldn’t have crossed my mind in a million years.
Lil says: “See Momma, I told you he was stupid.”
What’s the worst situation that your pet has gotten into and survived?
(Notice I say “survived”. Yes, this is a happy blog.)

we had a cat that adopted us, he had been bitten by a snake (we didn’t know that) and went to hide in a closet to lick his wounds. We didn’t see him in the closet and closed the door before leaving on a week long trip. Smart cat knocked down a pillow off a shelf to use for his facilities and emerged from the closet a week later, skinny, one slightly stiff snake bitten leg, and a big meow.
Rattlesnake bite.
Antivenin: $450 a vial. 4 vials later.
OMG - I saw the first picture before I started reading and thought that he was dead. That you have finally backed out and hit him.
The paper stuck to the face thing is SO much better!!!!
My completely hairless COMPLETELY INDOORS cat got outside for 3 days. I thought for sure between weather and other outdoor hazards he was dead. Found him in the flower bed by the front door 3 days later!!
We had a pomeranian walk out onto the swimming pool cover. We had one of those bubble wrap looking pool covers that just float on top of the water. The dog ran out on it. As it started sinking in where he was standing I thought I was going to have to go in after him. He thought is was all so funny. He ran back to the patio before I had to get in. Not too tragic.
I love the comment you made about what Lil is saying. It is so cute and apparently true.
One of my dogs survived a car accident. LONG story.
Lil’s expression is priceless. If only she could roll her eyes.
And dog accidents, hmmm. My dog Baxter ran into a reciprocating saw (it was off) and cut his foot to the bone (six staples); chewed wood and got a splinter in his throat (it abcessed and swelled to horrific proportions); fell through the ice on our pond and was breaking off the edges of the ice and sliding in each time he tried to get up scaring the bejesus out of me; broke his collar and took of running at the vet’s office - into the main road where he was hit by a car and then took off running again, this time with the vet tech chasing him for a mile; a splinter in his EYE socket (no idea); strained his ACL jumping for a ball and needed to be carried in and out of the house.
That’s just off the top of my head. He’s a lemon. A loveable lemon but a lemon nonetheless.
OMG, your dogs are hilarious!
The funniest thing I can think of was when Tyson had to wear that cone thing on his head after surgery. It was so funny when he was still doped up… he’d get up and fall face first every time. I know, bad Momma - but oh-so funny!
Hi! I’m blog hopping from Serendipity Mine’s blog.
My dog Mocha was planning something but we weren’t quite sure what she was going to do. We could see her little head moving from side to side then she started running towards a pile of snow my husband had stacked next to our fence. I think she was trying to jump to the top of the pile but misjudged it. She hit the middle of the pile and just slid belly down, since it was cold it hard turned to ice. We ran to her to make sure she was okay but she just shook herself and tried again… In the meantime my dog Tazz had climbed up the pile from the side of it and was watching us all with a dopey grin!
Um, worst thing I think was eating crayons and pooping rainbows. Oh, she did jump out of the back of a moving truck once. Not too bright.
Those are some cute doggies! No pet stories except how my parents left me home alone in high school and I had a big party and my dog of 12 years ran away. Everyone loved the dog and was devastated.
Currently, we flush a fish every few months and have beautiful Thomas the Cat who turned 11 in May. I never wanted a cat, but when Thomas was about a week old I pulled him out of the mouth of a boxer. Hundreds of dollars later the vet said I owned Thomas We throw him a big birthday bash every year.
I thought the same thing - that you had backed out over poor Jack’s face! Gese! I was wondering where you found the humor in that! :shocked: He probably came in saying “Mommy, Mommy, help me!?” with those eyes! Very funny!
OUCH! I shouldn’t be laughing, but I am!
My cat got sprayed by a skunk once. It was about 5 am and I thought I could wait until I got up to get the stink off him. I WAS WRONG!!!!
we just waxed our car and went home and we diddnt park our car in the garage but by the roof on our driveway and we let our indoor/outdoor cat named sassy outside after she ate and I went outside after her to water the lawn and saw her get up on the roof and jump on our car GUESS WHAT HAPPENED
She went sliding off the car with her 4 legs spread out going from the back of the car down on the windshield with a big bump and on the concrete but she diddnt seem to mind she actully kept doing it. So much for my carwash.(lol)I have a lot more stories but Im going to go now so BYE!
