Please say a prayer for our little cocker spaniel Doodles. He was run over by a pick up truck this morning (Feb. 5) and is now at the vet. Loosing him will break our hearts. This is the dog that we rescued from the pound and is the D.D.'s partner in 4H. I've moved the post up from the fair (see below) so you can see a picture of the two of them.
Feb 6 update: Many thanks to all of you who sent emails. Doodles is at home now. He has some blood in his urine so we have to keep a close eye on him and make sure he takes his meds. X-rays, though, showed no injuries. The best best medicine so far was getting him back to the D.D.--he perked up immediately. Man what a little scrappy, survivor!
Feb 8 update: Took Doodles into the vet for a check and he's fine. WOW Whatta dog. Thank you everyone.
I should also note that the two of them competed in the first 4H dog fun match of the season last Saturday. It was their first time to be in the intermediate category (7- 9 grades) and they WON. Then they competed in the open: all other competitors were seniors and adults and they came in second--though they had a 100 out of 100 score. We were all incredibly pleased.
