Crikey ...... How horrible is this?????
I'd like to be able to tell you that I was attacked by a great white shark while trying to protect my Mum or something but alas that's not how the story goes. No great white shark story for me. Just a great day at the beach ruined by a Moron with his equally moron dog. Now I'm not blaming the dog!! He's only a moran because that's what his moron owner taught him to be. It's the Moron himself that I blame. It all started like this. Mum, Dad and I had been at the beach for a while. I was playing with my mates. Paddy, the Irish wolfhound was there. Paddy and I have the best times together. I think Paddy is my very bestest mate at the beach. Lots of my mates were there and Paddy and I were playing with them and we were all having a great time when we saw another dog coming. His owner was with him and he was on a lead. We had seen him earlier and had gone up to say g'day and his owner just kept walking and didn't say anything. He didn't ask Mum or Paddy's owner to keep us away he just kept walking so we just ran off. Unfortunately for me, when we saw him again, we all ran up to him. There were four of us and this time the dog just took a great lunge at us and he got ME big time, aye?? I ran back to Mum and Dad and I was screaming. Everyone on the beach knew I'd been hurt but do you know what that moron bloke did? Just kept walking as if nothing had happened. Mum was furious and after calming me down a bit she and Dad set off in pursuit of the moron and the VET. They knew it was no use talking to the bloke but they did tell him that they felt his behaviour was inappropriate and were very disappointed to think that he didn't even stop to ask if I was ok. He denied his dog had done anything wrong and said he didn't so much as touch me before he lashed out with all sorts of very colourful, verbal abuse. Mum kept her cool but did tell him he was a moron before she and Dad walked away and took me to my mate Pete the VET. Crikey Pete's a good bloke. It was closing time but he and his nurse, Jackie, stayed back to operate on me. Pete said it was a very bad bite and if Mum and Dad had just left me to heal myself it would have become VERY badly infected and I would have been in an even worse state than I am now. I have a BIG problem with anesthetic too so Mum and Dad and Pete were very worried about me but hey ...... I survived and I am feeling a bit crook but it could have been a lot worse I guess. I had to stay at the hospital overnight but Mum and Dad came and picked me up real early this morning. There is no way I was going to eat or drink until they did. Jackie tried to get me to at least have a drink but NO WAY!! Not until Mum arrived. Then I drank a bucketful. Crikey I was thirsty. I'm still a bit shaky on my feet. Mum was real worried and wouldn't let me down onto our lawn cause I was walkin' all funny like and she could just see me fallin' in the river. Fair dinkum ....... what a horrible day, aye?? Me and my Sorry Ass have been sleeping most of the day. My good friend Goose http://gospelofgoose.blogspot.com.au/ gave me my Sorry Ass. He's my favourite stuffie. He's real good to snuggle with when you feel a bit crook.
I don't think I'll be going to the beach for a while. We've been having a bit of a bad trot there lately, aye?? Pete says I'm going to be left with a bit of a scar and it's on my most photogenic side too. How bad is that?? Crikey ...... I hope my Enid http://enid-aboutenid.blogspot.com.au/ will still love me.
AND my mate Bertie http://bouncingbertie.blogspot.com.au/ got into a bit of a tussle recently and he's got a scar too.We'll be able to compare our battle wounds, aye, Bertie?? Mum's just discovered the linky thing. She thinks she's so clever, aye??
Here's some more horrible stuff for the horriblest day ever. Our Jen got a phone call from Miss Jo's (the 6 year old Grandkid's) school to ask her to come to the school as Miss Jo had something in her eye and they had just called an ambulance as Jo was so distraught no-one could touch her. Oh No!!! Another wounded soldier!!! She's ok now. Once her Mum got there she calmed down enough that they could get whatever it was in her eye, out but she does have a bit of a sore eye still. Jo and I are sure going to look good for halloween, aye?? We won't even need to dress up.
What a horrible day!!!!!
Wanna run (in a week or two maybe) ...... Love, Charlie!!
Oh my goodness, Charlie, dat's whut ya meant by surgery... Yikes, he really did a number on you! The owner should have told yer folks dat his dog didn't like other dogs...
ReplyDeleteGlad yer folks took ya to da vet.. it's really important to get those kind of wounds stitched up and to get on some antibiotics. Did they put a drain in yer wound?
Sendin' prayers fur a speedy recovery and gentle hugs...
Thanks Finley. No drain but Pete said he cleaned it out real good.. I'm feeling pretty crook tonight but at least I'm home and Mum's going to be with me ALL night. She's real worried.
DeleteYer folks took ya right away... I'm sure ya'll be fine... hopefully it won't make ya skeered of other dogs... probably not, yer so furiendly! Do ya have to wear a cone of shame? Da soft ones is da most comfy...
DeleteGot the cone Finley but Mum calls it the cone of pride cause she reckons I got nothing to be ashamed of. I'm not skeered either. I'm still the friendly bloke I've always been. I've had a few problems and I'm still not healing up too good but I'll get there. Mum's been a bit frantic!!
DeleteOh Charlie, poor baby ! What a nasty dog owner (I agree its the owner not the dog)
ReplyDeleteYou take things steady now and get betters soon, lots of loves and rest for you fella !
Loves and healing licky kisses sweetie
Princess Leah xxx
Thanks Princess. Those healing licky kisses sure feel good. I'm resting up big time Princess. On Mums lap right now.
DeleteOh no poor you. We send healing vibes and POTP. As for the moron man we would so love to bite his ankle really, really hard. Take it easy. Sounds like you might want to give the beach a miss for a while. Have a terrific Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Thanks Miss Molly. I think Mum would like to bite more than that moron blokes ankle but I think an ankle would be a good start, aye? The beach is definitely out of bounds for a while.
DeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteCrikey mate that is just grooooo-sum.... gotta say if there were witnesses, I'd have been reporting that to the Polisy blokes cuz clearly that brute needs a muzzle - never mind his dog... You rest up good and proper Charlie and here's to fine healing (I can report that Bertie's scar is invisible as his furz have grown real well!) Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Plenty of witnesses Aunty but no-one knows the bloke and we couldn't hang around to see if he got into a car to get his number plate. Our friends on the beach were going to see if they could find out about him for us. We'll have to wait and see. He sure did need a muzzle. I felt sorry for the dog having him for a master. I'm so glad you met Bertie and his scar is all better. I'll be better soon too.. I'm in good hands and getting spoilt like you wouldn't believe..
ReplyDeleteCharlie mate, that is dreadful just dreadful. Looking at that wound, we could almost be twins. Oh gosh it does hurt a lot doesn't it? I felt really miserable for a couple of days after I was attacked, but then I bounced right back and I'm sure you will too my friend.
ReplyDeleteGail and I are so glad you managed to get treated before an infection set in and are now being spoiled rotten (as is only right).
Gosh I hope they find that horrid moron of a dog owner.
Sending healing hugs to both you and to your mum, who will also be feeling thoroughly shaken up.
Bertie (and Gail).
Twins with YOU Bertie????? OMD I feel almost honoured, mate!! You're right about it hurting! I'm trying to bounce back but it's taking a bit longer than Mum would like. I'll get there though. He did a good job on me alright. No sign of the moron or his dog. I don't think they'll be returning to the beach. Too many people looking out for him. Thanks for the hugs. Mum sure needed them. She was shaken up alright. Like a milkshake.
DeleteOh poor Charlie! Whut a turrible time yu've been havin! Take it easy Pal. Wurk this deal fur treats an pampurrin an stuff.
ReplyDeleteAn yu poor lil Jo! Let us know how she's doin, ok?
Hugs an luv all the way frum my place in Idunno.
Thanks so much Zoe. I've sure been pampered. I even got some icecream. Jo was fine. She got better a lot faster than me. I've still got problems but I'm getting there, slowly!! Crikey ..... hugs and luv from your place in Idunno. That sure makes me feel better. You're a great Sheila, Zoe.
Deletewell that is jut terrible - what an awful week you have had and we agree - stay away from the beach for a while. Hope you get to feeling better soon charlie
ReplyDeleteThanks Reilly and Denny .... I'm getting there and there's NO beach happening for me for a while. No parks either. I've just been walking around the block lots. ON lead!!!!!!! Crikey ...... I'm sooooooooo bored!!
DeleteCharlie I finks you MUST stay away from the beach for awhile...although I have read in those funky romances that the womens loves a man wif a scar so that is not going to be any problem for you at all, Isa cannot believe that mean moran just kept on walking not evens caring...its true his dog is only misbehaved cos his dad is real stoooopid!!!! We are sending you all ours good wishes and a little smooch that you get better real soon, hope that little girl is okay also.
ReplyDeletestella rose
Thanks for all your good wishes and that little smooch sure went down well. I hope your right about the Sheilas' liking a bloke with a scar cause I'm sure going to have one. Jo is ok!! She bounced back real quick.
DeleteOMP! The nerve of that guy to just walk away as if nothing had happened and his dog didn't do anything - the bully! You poor thing. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery my friend. And don't worry - you're all totally photogenic pal! XOXO - Bacon
ReplyDeleteCrikey Bacon ..... that's what upset Mum more than anything else. She couldn't understand how he could be so uncaring as to just walk away when he KNEW I was hurt. Thanks for the good wishes and the reassurance about my looks. Mum thinks I'll sport quite a scar!!
DeleteOh, Charwie. Dis r ebery pup pawents nitemare. I hope dat kharma r gonna be weal nastee tu dat morwonik guy. I wefuse tu say man cuz a weal man wood take wesponsibiwiteez fur da ackshuns ob hims dog. Nod da dog's fault at all. Him wuz jus' duin' whut him knows.

Awwwwwww Zaids .... thanks so much, mate!! I just love huggies and stuffs so much. Mum reckons you're right about the moron. His day will come, aye?? I real feel VERY sorry for his dog. It totally wasn't his fault. If I had an agro owner like that I'd probably be agro too. We are so lucky to have good folks, aye?? Little Jo is fine. She got over it real quick like!!
DeleteCRIKEY Charlie.... that was the MOST horrid day EVER... We are so very much sorry that happened to you Mate.
ReplyDeleteBUTT you know that the Ladies do sort of Admire a Guy with a Scar or two... and a good story to go with it. Just sayin...
Now you rest up with SORRY ASS... and before you know it you will be Right as Rain. NO WORRIES NO WORRIES
Thanks Frankie and Ernie. I'm a bit tired of resting up now but it was good for a few days. I gave my Sorry Ass a good work out. He's become my very favourite stuffy. I sleep with him most nights. As for the scar ...... well I sure hope the sheilas don't mind it too much because I think it's going to be a beauty.
DeleteCharlie what's going on on your side of the ocean? what a bad day you had. I'm so sorry and I hope you feel better soon. I was attacked by a moron-dog too and I hope so much it heals up quickly and you can enjoy the beach and the company of your mates soon. Some people are just uuugggh... and I hope you will never meet such a doofus-biped like this dog owner. I also corr my paws for Miss Jo and I hope she has no pains and her eye will be ok soon without any aftereffects. Send you a big Weimaraner hug to you and to Miss Jo.
ReplyDeleteCrikey Easy ..... thanks mate!! You were attacked too?? It's not much fun is it?? I LOVED the Weimaraner hug and so did Miss Jo. She bounced back real quick and her eye is fine now.
DeleteDon't worry about a scar, Charlie... it would just give ya street cred, ya know?? Battle scars make ya look tuff, and ya know how da ladies swoon ovfur da tuff guys!!
ReplyDeleteCrikey ....... Mum's laughing and saying 'TUFF ... You Charlie ... tuff??????' Hmmmmmmmmph! I CAN be tuff if I want to be!! Can't I?????
DeleteOuch, dat looks like it hurts. Like Finley said, I wouldn't worry bout a scar, ladies like tuff guys.
ReplyDeleteHope ya are feelin better soon.
I'm a lot better now thanks Whitley. AND I'M tuff even if Mum doesn't think so.
DeleteOMD! Mei-Ling and I haven't been around too much lately and look what happens....you got attacked for no reason at all! Momma once told us that she read dogs on leashes are more likely to feel threatened and attack when other dogs off leash come to say "Hello". We hope your owie gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteYour Momma is right Puffy about dogs on leash feeling threatened but some of the other dogs had been up to the dog and the moron bloke told their owner's he was ok. He so wasn't, aye?? Mum thinks it was because 4 of us went up to him all at once but the moron didn't even try to hold him back. Mum's still blaming herself too though. She feels she should have known the dog was a problem. She's stopped me plenty of times when dogs have been on leash but she really thought this one was ok. She won't be so trusting in future, aye??
DeleteYou and your Miss Jo might be ready fur Halloween...but I sure wish you didn't have to be in those costumes:(
ReplyDeleteIf that dog was on a lead with his * @*#&@(^$moron*, that **$&$$!!*$&!$@!#*%moron*
should have been paying close attention, cause dogs on leads feel threatened around other dogs and will lash out. He needs a ton of lessons in doggy behavior...and it seems he needs a lot more in proper people manners, too. Grrr...I shall have to bite him fur ya...Grrr...
Meanwhile, I am glad you were able to get vet help right away. Sending hugs hugs and tons of POTP to you. Feel better soon eat and drink and beg fur lots of treats, too...wait...they should just come your way without begging being needed.
Poor Miss Jo. Hope her eye feels better now. Maybe someone in her furmily can paint a happy face on that patch. Sheesh, don't they have pink ones fur wee gals? BOL!
Take care now! I hope and pawyer that the rest of your week goes a lot better.
Thanks Mr JF Sir ...... Mum was aware of the danger of dogs on lead around off leash dogs and usually puts me on a lead too but she had sussed the dog out and others had told her the moron bloke said his dog was ok. Mum won't take anyone else's word for things EVER again. She's mad at herself as well as at the moron bloke. He shouldn't have been at the leash free beach though if he knew his dog was aggressive. All the dogs know each other and they are all so friendly and naturally run up to any new dog to check them out. Funny but he was ok with me when I first went up to him but I was alone the first time. There were 4 of us the second time.
DeleteMiss Jo is fine. She bounced back much faster than me. I like your idea of the funny face on the patch or at least a pink one for little girls.
OOps, I was so worried and upset I furgot that comment notifier checkmark...
ReplyDeleteAh Charlie, what a horrible day indeed! We hope you heal quickly and can get back to being your chipper self real soon! So sad that you won't be able to go to the beach for a while, we known its one of your most favorite places. Sending lots of POTP to you for a speedy recovery. We hope Miss Jo's eye is all better soon, too!
ReplyDeleteWaggies and hugs,
BrAeden, Seth and Riley
Thanks Braeden and Seth. I'm on the mend now I think but it's still going to be a while before I'm back to the beach. Miss Jo is all back to normal. I'm taking a bit longer.
DeleteOh no!! I'm so sorry you got bitten, Charlie!!! That must have been so scary! I hope you and Miss Jo feel better soon!!
ReplyDeleteIt sure was scary but I'm on the mend now I think. Miss Jo is all better. She healed up much quicker than me.
DeleteOh Noes!!!! Charlie, dude, I am so sorry to hears about that ASS and his doggie hurtin' you!!! I sure hopes you are feelin' better today, and that you heal real fast so you can get back to playin' with your mates. maybe you can meet up somewhere where ASSES and their doggies don't.
ReplyDeleteI sure hopes Miss Jo's eye is feelin' betters soon too! Oh my. What a week fursure!
I am sendin' everyone lots of POTP and tons of AireZens!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
Crikey Ruby.... POTP and AIREZens. How good is that?? Thankyou so much. It wasn't the best week in the world but I'm alive and on the mend and Jo is ok. There's a lot of peeps and their animal friends a lot worse off than we are, aye?? All up we are the lucky ones and I am very grateful for that I must say. I don't think that drongo ASS will show his face on MY beach again. Too many eyes searching for him. Thanks for your kind thoughts Ruby!!
DeleteOuch! Hope you're feelin better soon mate.
ReplyDeleteI'm a lot better today thanks, Travis. It's been a rough week but today (wednesday) Mum's finally settled down and thinks I'm going to be ok. Stitches out tomorrow. I've been getting lots of bacon treats so it hasn't all been bad, aye??
DeleteOh dear, that is terrible! We are so glad you are gonna be okay. Some hoomans can be jerks!! OK, about the link thing your mom discovered . . . give her this tip: If you highlight the word(s), like in this case Bertie's name, and then click on the link tool, then the link will be hidden and Bertie's name will be highlighted so people know it is hooked up to a link. Tell her to let us know if she has any troubles. In the meantime we hope you all get some ice cream!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Crikey Murphy and Stanley ..... thanks for all that info. Mum's tried it and its worked real good for her. She thinks she's so clever but you two are the clever ones, aye??
DeleteI got some icecream!!!!!!!!!! Unfortunately it came with a CONE!! It wasn't the good kind of cone either but that dreaded one they make you wear around your neck. The icecream was good and Mum hand fed it to me but I'm still waiting for one in a cone. The good kind of cone.
How scary for all of you when you were just having fun!! We had a similar thing happen to one of our dogs several years ago, so I know how your Mum and Dad felt. NONE of you should have ever been talked to or treated the way you were from the man or his dog. You all showed so much courage to stand up to the man who I hope is found!! Like everyone, Charlie, I'm so glad that you are okay and that was your only wound and I also feel sorry for this pup, and sadly this pup will be the one who pays for the *stupid* owner! You all take care, and from our corner of Virginia, we are sending healing vibes for you and that sweet Miss Jo!!!
ReplyDeleteThankyou all so much for your kind thoughts. I really do appreciate them and so does Miss Jo. She is fine now and I'm getting there, slowly. I feel real sorry for that poor dog too even though he took a chunk out of me. No one deserves to have an owner like that. He hasn't been found yet but in a way that's good as it means he's staying well and truly away from our very friendly dog beach. There's lots of eyes looking out for him so if he does show up he will be found.
DeleteOh my, so terrible and so scary. We are so glad it wasn't worse. We are sending hugs and loves your way. Please heal up quickly and keep you eye out for that bad dog
ReplyDeleteThankyou so much. It sure could have been a lot worse, aye?? If that dog had got loose I think he might have killed me. He sure was angry about something. I don't think he or his owner will show up at our beach again.Too many eyes searching for him.
DeleteOMD!! you did have a horrible day. How dare some mean ass dog attack you! If I would have been there I would have ripped that dog a new one and pissed all over his jerk of an owner. Sending you and Miss Jo the POTP.
ReplyDeleteAroo to you,
Sully
Crikey Sully ..... I sure wish you had been there. I would have liked to see you in action. You would have told him, aye?? Mum's got this mental picture of you hanging onto his b--l-s by your teeth until he drops me and then you going and peeing all over that moron bloke. Too funny, Sully. Thanks Sully .... it's good to see Mum laugh. She hasn't been doing much of that this week.
DeleteCRIKEY is right!! Oh my poor pal! I sure hope you're feeling much better real soon. And prayers for your family, too, cause they were probably SO SCARED!
ReplyDeleteThanks much Fizzy. I'm a lot better now. Thanks for the prayers too. They sure were needed. Mum was in a bit of a state. She handles everything real good until all the drama is over and then she falls apart. She's had a pretty miserable week but she'll be right from now on. Today she can see, for the first time, that I'm going to be ok.
DeleteOh my DOG, oh my dog, OH MY DOG!!!! Charlie.........my heart nearly stopped when I saw that wound! I feel so bads thats I wasn't there to defends you and show that moron whats fur! My poor boy, of course I'll still love you, besides your scar, I'll always love you. I hopes you gets better very soons. I'm sendings you big licks, kisses and hugs. You're sooo brave and heroic!
ReplyDeleteYours always,
Enid xxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxox
Crikey Enid ..... I'm just glad you weren't there. It might have been you that got hurt. Mum reckons I was the one that got bitten because I was the fastest and therefore the first one to get to the dog. You're fast too and you might have beaten me and it could have been YOU. OMD I couldn't bare that!!!!!!! And your modelling career would have been ruined and all. Oh!! For the first time EVER I'm glad you weren't with me. AND I'm sure glad you'll still love me .... even with a big scar down my good side. Hopefully it won't be too bad. It kinda runs with my stripes so it mightn't be too noticeable.
DeleteCrikey those licks, kisses and hugs sure feel good. You are the bestest Sheila in the whole world. My ENID!!!!! Crikey I'm a lucky bloke.
Yours forever and ever ........Charlie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Poor Charlie! What a terrible day you had. I am glad it worked out and you are getting better. Don't worry one bit about the scar.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jelly ..... It was a pretty tough week but it's looking a lot rosier now. My Enid still loves me and I'm on the mend so all is right with my world again, aye??
DeleteOh my Charlie, mom just read this to me. So sorry about that injury and that bad man and his bad dog. Glad you are feeling better. Mom is kissing the computer screen and hoping your owie is better!
