Man's best friend ~ Man's best teacher!

Sometimes when a man is a true gentleman, he is forced to suffer the consequences. When this brave knight-in-shining-armor witnessed his ladies being ill-used by a vulgar street gang, he dove in to save them! May all Christian men be willing to follow his example, hopefully without his results. ;-)
Unfortunately, the odds proved too great, and Ranger was found by his family looking as if he had taken a ride through a meat grinder. Since Simon was away, and Jeremy burst into tears at the sight of him, Mom and I gritted our teeth, and managed somehow to load him into the car, and race him off to the vet. After surgery, stitches, and drain tubes, he came home a little sore . . . but is recovering!

Sally,
Bravo for the knight, how unfortunate the results of his chivalry. It takes some definite gritting of teeth to have to deal with a situation like that. Hope your faithful Ranger is doing better now!

Thank-you Carol! As a reward for his bravery, he has been crowned with the dreaded plastic cone. :-) He is quite depressed at the moment, and looks confused at the chuckles of his family when he goes bumping about. Otherwise, he's healing up very nicely. :-)

Much love,

Sally

One sure way of chasing away blog readers...posting a gruesome picture, so everytime blog opens, picture pops up!

No, your blog is still read by the Hubers. I'm sorry about Ranger :( Hope he's better soon!

Perhaps, but it wasn't a boy writing.
