Mickey's Had a REALLY "Ruff" Week

His bad luck started on Saturday when he got run over by a jeep that was speeding through the neighborhood. When Steve yelled at her to slow down she said, "I was only going 35mph!" Well, that's ten over in a residential area....her stupidity didn't stop there. Then she had the nerve to drive off without even apologizing or asking if the dog was even Ok. Well being the "Kujo" dog that he is....no broken bone, just 10 stitches & a small fortune for us to pay. Poor dog, all of this happened on his 1st birthday!

Then today we had an appointment for a LONG overdue grooming appointment. He was so matted no amount of combing could fix it. We knew it wouldn't be easy to fix. It definitely was rough....he clawed the groomer, had to be sedated for them to finish his appointment & then left with 3 more stitches in his neck, looking like a chiuaua. The razor nicked him pretty good!! He is alive after another big bill for us to pay. We hope this is the end of his bad luck....it is starting to cost too much!

Mickey "D" BEFORE his bad luck....


Looking more like a mop.


And now...


Looking more like a Chiuaua

Natasha told us about him being hit, that is awful! He looks like a completely different dog now! Look at it this way, it will be a LONG time before you have to pay for another grooming bill!

You're poor dog. I'm glad he's okay. That's just crazy.
