I ran over my dog!!!!!

[pinkytuscadero]

I can't believe this, but I ran over little weiner dog, Opie.:cry: He is at the evet now. WWAAAAA!!!!!

The kids won't talk to me and I haven't gotten the courage to tell Big Daddy. (He says he hates him but secretly loves him)

He was so pitiful.

Pinky

[Echo Four Bravo]

I hope he makes it.

[58ford]

How bad???

[countrygirl]

Sorry, but how do you have time to post here when you are worried about you dog? MH would be the least of my worries if I did that...

[pinkytuscadero]

Well I swear I felt him under my tire but he doesn't have any broken bones. However, he is in shock and already has a purple color in his pelvic area. They are concerned about his labored breathing and are watching to make sure nothing happens. He is on morphine. :cry:

He got out and chased me and my oldest as we were going to the walking track.

He was scared and he was in pain.:smt086

Well since he is there and I am here I had time to post. They don't let you stay there.

[countrygirl]

I wasn't trying to be mean...I just know that my dog is my "baby"!

[upset]

Well, I wish you and your weiner the best. I love mine. I'm sure evets will take care of him. Sounds like you might need to make some bacon when he comes home from the vet...

[fuzzis]

Awwwwww...I'm so sorry to hear that. Poor little guy...and poor you. :smt009

[Baloo]

pinky, I am so sorry to hear that... What kind of dog is he? I had a 120 mutt that was run over by a one ton dually and he lived... He had a broken pelvis and bruised internal organs and it was so sad watching him in pain, but he made it. I brought him home from the vet's office and put him out in my hay barn and just babied him for about 6 weeks and after that he never had a problem.

I hope that your dog is doing ok and that he will heal and be healthy. They are very strong and resiliant creatures... Good luck with him...

[mac]

I hope he's okay. Don't beat yourself up though.

My first dog's name was Pinky. I named her that because the letter of the week at school that week was "P." (I was in pre-school.) My mother ran over her in the driveway, and even though it sucked I didn't suffer any serious psychological trauma because of it. Kids are pretty resilient creatures too.

[pinkytuscadero]

I think I will make him more rotten than he already is!!!! He has torn up every pillow and comforter the boys have. He has eaten all the wicker furniture in my sunroom. He has tee teed on all my oriental rugs. I LOVE HIM!!!

He is a dashound/weiner dog. I bought him as a surprise for one of the boys.

Ooohhh, Pinky... I am so sorry... He is such a cutie and is just a little guy... I hope that he is not hurt too bad...

[pinkytuscadero]

That's actually an old photo. He is still a puppy, 8 months, but is bigger. My youngest says his "beak" is bigger now!:-D

[upset]

That could've been a picture of mine when she was a puppy..... I'm sure your pup will be fine, they're resilient. No matter what, I'm sure your kids will understand, soon.

[mac]

Oh My. That is a cutie!

You're killin' me! I have been wanting a weiner dog. They're cute puppies and cool dogs! There's one in our neighborhood that walks around like he's the neighborhood alpha. I have two mutts that love me though.

I love your new title!!!! :-D I wish I had a photo of Opie and his "girlfriend" Annie. Annie is an overweight-middle age lab. They are so funny together.

[Honey]

Oh, Pinky, I hope he is okay.

[countrygirl]

I WOULD stay there...if they liked it or not. My dog is my baby...

[jmb]

(((Pinky))) Hope your precious puppy heals quickly.

[virgo]

Oh Pinky! I am so sorry! I really hope he will be OK. I grew up with dachshunds, I love those little dogs. Please keep us updated. I will keep you in my prayers.

[wilebill]

I really hate to hear that. I hope both of you are okay.

[Scarlett O'Hara]

Oh Pinky, I'm so sorry............ I ran over my lab in the garage one day. Rhett and she were in the garage as I came home and I thought she had gotten up as I drove up (which any normal dog would have done) but she didn't and I ran straight over her front legs. Rhett screamed at me to stop so I did, right on top of her legs! Okay after I realized this I backed up and she bit Rhett as he was trying to get her in the car to take her to the vet. But you know what, it didn't even break the legs!!!!!!! that's been about seven years ago, she has some arthritis now and doesn't move too well on cold mornings but man is she reistant or what?

[Hermione]

Pinky, I'm so sorry -- I know you must be really upset.

[birthdaybunnie]

My baby got hit by a car, his hip was broken. Luckily I found him immediately and took him to the vet. He was going into shock. Doc gave him a shot of something and kept him overnight. He was fine the next day. He had to wear panties for a while because he had problems pooing without making a mess. All this happened on Superbowl Sunday at 430pm.
He lifts his little leg when he runs sometimes but he is good to go.

[Pop]

Hang in there Opie ... yo buddy Oscar!!!!

Awwwwwwwwwwwww.....that was so sweet!!

[firefly]

Oh, Pinky! Miss Weenie & I will be praying for Opie to come through this with flying colors! BTW, Miss Weenie says to tell you that "Weenie Dogs Rule!" She is a red smooth coat like yours, but she will be 10 in Feb. Her face & little hands have turned white now. She still thinks that she's 10 feet tall & bullet-proof, like all weenie dogs do!

[birthdaybunnie]

Awwwwwwwwwwwww.....that was so sweet!!

It sure is!!! I hope your baby is home ASAP!!

[onlyme]

I hope Opie will be back home soon with no lingering side effects. What a cute little fellow.

[jmb]

Pinky, do you have any news on Opie?

[pEtAl mIsFiT]

Pinky, sorry to hear about Opie. I know you are devastated or was. What is going on with him?

[pinkytuscadero]

Opie is doing ok. Thanks for asking!!!

He is home and in his kennel. He is on pain meds and really mellow. He is obviously sore and hurting but I think he will be ok.

The biggest thing the vet said was to keep him from trying to play with the boys.

Annie (his lady friend) was so happy to see him!!!!! :clap:

Pinky

[Honey]

Thanks for the update.

[onlyme]

:woohoo:
OPIE :yourock:

[Maggie-Doodle]

Pinky, I pray that your doggy baby will be ok...I can't even imagine how you must feel. I know in your case this was an accident but it makes me think about folks who just let their critters out to run wild without a leash or a fence then bitch when something "happens" to their critter....
Had those folks been so damn concerned to begin with the critter would not have been hurt in the first place. Please keep us posted. Let us know if we can be of help.

[jkspatty]

I am so happy to hear little opie is going to be ok. He is precious!

[pinkytuscadero]

Yes, it does yank my chain when people complain about their dogs but let them run wild.

Opie is an inside baby. We laugh b/c he is such a pansy that he will poo on the concrete if the grass is cold or wet. :smt118 (Hubby LOVES that!)


Annie is an outside dog with no fence. However, she stays close and doesn't leave unless she is on our boat or gator. :kekeke:

[virgo]

I'm so happy to hear that he is going to be alright!

[Scarlett O'Hara]

Glad to hear the good news

[Chichiguita]

:clap:Whew--that was a scary thread...I'm so happy he's okay. take care!

Pinky I'm so glad Opie is doing well. :clap::clap:

On another note, is the behavior over wet grass a typical dauchound behaviour? My baby is part Dach. and she HATES wet grass. :-D

[Butterball]

Pinky - Mrs BB just pointed out the thread and your accident. We pet owners all fear such accidents and guard against them BUT having done the same thing more than once with disastrous results ( for both animal and owner ), I sympathize with you and your puppy dog. I'm just glad you both will be OK. Keep him safe and love him lots...........

[pinkytuscadero]

I don't know if it is. I have thought about it before and wondered if it is because their little legs are so short that they don't like the wet grass touching their bellies.:kekeke: I'm sure there are some owners who know.

That must be it! :laugh: She's not a fan of cold either. Currently she is curled up in her favorite place, right next to me.

Give Opie a hug, I hope he starts feeling better real soon.

Pinky

My Yorkie does the same thing.........He won't go to the bathroom in the grass if it hasn't just been mowed, either. I think it's becasue they are so small.

[HubDoc]

Glad to hear the good news, Pinky! I hope everything remains positive for Opie!

[No-Halo]

Pinky I don't have a weiner but I sure am glad to hear yours is ok. :clap:

[Baloo]

Thanks for the update Pinky! I am so happy to hear that your baby is doing well!!!

[fuzzis]

Pinky I don't have a weiner but I sure am glad to hear yours is ok. :clap:

Yeah, Mrs. Halo already told us about your missing wiener. :kekeke:

[No-Halo]

Grrrrrrrrrrrr ;)

[Dixie Tree Slayer]

Oh Pinky,
I just read the whole thread... I am so sorry... I hope your baby heals real fast. You can see mine as my avatar. He isn't my whole world but the largest percentage of it. He got bone cancer over a year ago and we had to have it amputated... Rarely does a day go by without my examining his remaining legs and thanking the good Lord for another day with him... He just turned 8 last month.
A side note my step daughter came back to live with us or a while and brought her little wiener dog with her... I talk gruffly around the women but the little turkey goes everywhere with me and Kujeaux... His name is tee niny because according to her he isn't tiny he is tee niny... I call him stinky wink... He too hates the cold and with a woman going through the change in life we often keep the house cold... He jumps on the bed (MY BED!!) then roots under and sticks his ice cold nose in the middle of my back... I probably have permanent back muscular damage from my jerking wide awake...
But when they throw their eyes on yours and just stare it kinda tears you up doesn't it?
Sometimes life just seems cruel doesn't it?
Here's praying your Opie comes through fast and with no lingering after effects...
Keep us posted on his recovery please...

I see Your dog is like my Katie Dixie....insists on the front seat!

[countrygirl]

I forgot to mention Pinky, I really am glad your dog is ok. :clap::clap::clap:

[Maggie-Doodle]

Yeah, Mrs. Halo already told us about your missing wiener. :kekeke:

I was just wondering if I was the ONLY one who caught that! :laugh:

Boy did he set himself up! :kekeke:

[Maggie-Doodle]

Oh Pinky, Thank God your little Opie is back home. Just keep a close check on him and shower him with lots of kisses, he will get well faster. If you keep him crated it most of the time for the next few days until he heals a little he will probably be better off. Good luck and keep us posted on how he is doing. Sending prayers up for you all.

[Dixie Tree Slayer]

I see Your dog is like my Katie Dixie....insists on the front seat!
The truck is his he thinks... Front seat, back seat and sometimes thinks he can sit in my lap... He really is spoiled rotten... As all dogs should be...
Especially Opie... He really needs extra loving or sure...
Not sure how he gets along Pinky but Kujeaux had difficulty getting around and we put a t-shirt on him and held him up by the shirt. Or at least gave him some much needed assistance...

[Maggie-Doodle]

Pinky, how is Opie today? Did he rest good last night? Does he seem to be in any pain? I am still saying prayers for all of you.

He is doing well. :clap:He is getting around some and will flip on his back to show you his "boo-boos". :kekeke: Thanks for asking about my little baby.

Pinky

[Kitty]

Dear Santa:

Please bring Opie a special treat for Christmas.

Your friend,
Kitty (who loves puppies)

[HarleyBarbie]

Pinky, I am so pleased to hear that Opie is alright. He looks just like my dog that we lost last year around this time. We miss her.

[Maggie-Doodle]

Pinky, glad he is doing good so far...I pray he continues to heal. keep us posted.
