So I Gave My Dog a Black Eye…

Today I took our two dogs outside to play with them. My mini-Dachshund, Shorty, has a favorite toy he likes to play with outside. It’s a soft, green ring that’s perfect for rolling along the ground at high speeds. Shorty loves to chase the ring while it’s rolling.
Our other dog, Kelsey, a Shelty, just likes to bark while I throw the ring. Well today, as I was really putting some power behind a ring throw, she jumped in too close as I threw the ring. It beaned her smack dab in the eye. One second it was excited barking, the next it was painful whining. I didn’t even know what happened because I had just let go of the ring when she jumped in the way. I bent down to check her out and her left eye was closed. I opened it up and checked it out. The eyeball itself was fine, and she started play barking again, so I kept playing.
Well, later tonight I noticed she’s half winking. I took a closer look and her eye is all poofy! I think I gave her a black eye, or the dog equivalent! LOL! She’s going to be ok though. I’ll bet she doesn’t get that close to one of my throws again.
“Ill bet she doesnt get that close to one of my throws again.”
I most definitely would!. You’re dangerous! :o)
