DOG BITE!!!




Do you like puppies? I LOVE puppies! Don't you like to hold them and have them close to you? Me too! Make sure you meet the mother first! Let me just share with you my little example of what happens when you don't!! A friend of ours has a dog who had seven puppies. "Can we go see them?" "Why not," said my mom. We were at their house and I asked one of her boys if I could see the puppies. "Sure, they're in the bathroom," said the boy. So we went in the bathroom. The mom was outside so I hadn't met her yet. The puppies were ADORABLE!!! But all of a sudden, the mom came in and saw me on my knees holding one of her puppies. Before I knew it, she was biting on my braid. It scared me so bad that I dropped the puppy. It was just inches off the floor, so I didn't hurt the puppy when I dropped it. The puppy did a small yelp and the mom went for my face. She bit my lip pretty good and it hurt really bad. But it was a miracle that she didn't bit my eyes or ears. So that's my little tale of why you always meet the mom first! (Here's a picture of me the day after....OUCH!!!)

Rachel,
I'm so glad that this is over! You are quite the trooper, and you have healed quite beautifully! You will forever be beautiful to me! Love, Mom

Rachel,

Ouch! You are so brave! That's a good lesson I'll remind my kids about. When you love dogs it's easy to forget you have to be careful before petting a dog you haven't met before. Thanks for the reminder.

Love,
Aunt Kimi

P.S. I love your blog!
