Maggie is so cute! How is she doing? I know how awful you felt, it really does kick us in the gut when anything bad happens to our fur-kids, whether its something we do unintentionall y, or something their clumsy selves get into...its not easy.
For example- my hubby and I were out walking Tucker the other night, and along the route we take is a huge boulder that Tucker LOVES to climb up on, and jump off, its probably 2, 3? feet off the ground.
Tucker was sitting on top of the boulder, my hubby was right beside him, petting him. Tucker put his front paws over Brent's shoulders, then his head, in a true dog-hug, and for some reason- my husband STEPPED AWAY! (he claims he was pushed backwards by Tucker, but I have my doubts and think its more just poor judgement on his part).
Well, Tucker lost his balance and fell off the rock, landing with a thump and wail on the ground. OMG we felt horrible, and Brent was sure he'd broken a leg. It took about 7 minutes to convince Tucker to try to get up....he limped a little bit, but was fine after about 10 minutes, trying to get back on the rock again. It happens.
